Yes! Everyone is welcome!

There's no better way to experience the track for the first time than with your fellow 350z members!

Also, if you want to invite friends with other makes/models/cars, you're more than welcome to do so.

I suggest getting to the gates by 6:30, the 400 car limit is hit most of the time.
I suggest getting to the gates by 5:30am, people start lining up before gates open and you'd be smart to be with them.

Im going. I may/may not run. I dont want to run with 19s again. I hate saying "if I had 18s and better tires I wouldve ran this time (faster time)."

blah! time attack is on the same day. I REALLY hope it doesnt rain though

Should I go on 19 bfg KDW NT or stock 17s? I hope there are some fast Zs going to represent and not just the mid 14 second club.

Go on what ever tire is the stickiest.

As far as fast Z's, last time I was at the track I saw a couple break into the mid 13's. The last time I was there I hit 12.5 at 116mph. However, I haven't ran my car in over a year and I added some Nismo Cams to the mix.... so I'm scared I'll break something.

I didn't get any traction as I didn't get a chance to purchase new cheaters before going to the track.

So... with "bald" cheaters and all motor, I managed a 13.9 @ 100mph. I'll scan some slips when I get a chance, but here's a vid of the run.....

That's not bad at all. Best I could ever manage was 13.9@101 on 20psi stocks and I could swear I did 13.49 on drag radials, but I can't find the slip, LOL. Oh well. Hope you all had fun there. If gets really cold after sunset, doesn't it?
