yes there is less immediate danger in a standing mile... but i think if anything, the standing mile requires more prep than a drag race. One small thing goes wrong you're crashing at 200mph. Although these street cars may have the power to go 200mph they weren't necessarily designed for it aerodynamically and one small gust of wind or a little bump and you're going to crash. theres lots of videos of people crashing at the standing mile... and their cars are always totally destroyed.

I dont think this is anyone talking **** about the Z... people (370z owners and non 370z owners) want to see some hard results, and dynosheet after dynosheet is just getting old. The moment someone criticizes or asks a question about the 370z's shortcomings people flip out. Bottom line is this thread is about why the FI z's arent running 10s, and the conclusion is people are scared they will break, or crash. Hey guess what... those 'garbage ass mustangs... they run 10's, 9's 8's 7's, 6's.

All these people you consider 'haters' are actually called 'car enthusiasts.' No one here is trash talking about the car, people are asking why 600rwhp cars aren't running 10's and there's always some excuse because fanboys can't see past a question or criticism and immediately go on the defensive and talk about 'haters.' I love the 370z, and i'd love to see it run 10's. am i hater because i think that a 600rwhp car should run a 10 in the 1/4 mile? i guess so.
