i arrived at the track at 530 and it was bikes night so i barely fit in the two runs i got. On thefirst i didnt do a burnout so i had a weak launch. I plan on getting to the track one of these days at an earlier time so i can get in at least a half dozen runs or so. Im beginning to get more comfortable with the car. Its only been modded a couple months now.

Agreed thats slow. People can easily run 13's with bolt-ons. Maybe he hit that cuz he skipped 3rd. Too bad...

Nice looking Z saad, do you have any more pics of it? And the specs of your car? Like how much boost your running, if you have anything other then the APS kit? Is this your first time at the track? Dont worry about the people giving you a hard time haha, you'll get used to running down the 1/4 mile and hit 12's easily, even though you missed 3rd, you had a nice mph, 109 is pretty decent, you have enough power to be in the 12.7-12.5 range I think with a great launch and hitting all the gears...You were on 18 inch or 19 inch rims, with street tires right? Be safe bro.

Thanks to those who have something nice to say. It was my 3rd time at the track with the car. First time on drags. Im not much concerned with the car at the track. For those who get into 11's 12's or 13's, thats great. Im on my way to building a car that is street driveable and a highway monster. I started modding my engine 3 months ago, in mid April.

Also, my car is much heavier than other Z's, especially the guys breaking 11's with their cars. I have a full ported box the size of my trunk including the space for the spare tire in the back with two fairly large amps, a 1000 and a 600. I have 19 inch polished 3-piece wheels in the front, and some 18 5zigen fn01rc's with street drags on the back. A lip kit. Its also the touring with thenavi, andheated power leather seats. All this adds up to about 800 pounds.

Now you drag experts can calculate in your smart A$$ heads how many tenths of a second that alone takes off my 1/4 mile time. Enough, you guys think you know me or Z's, i have an 03 which i've had for over 3 years now. With is stock on my potenza's i ran high 13's.

supra crazy,

You know, you seem like a real jack ***. I would imagine any decent person would simply point out that its not quite to their taste. Not say your not a decent person.... :
