Of the drag radials the ET Street Radial is probably the best.
Ah, got it. Thanks

chuckd05 has a bmw 135i with full bolt ons with maybe 400whp... i'm not even sure if it has that much. He runs low to mid 11's. Next thing you are going to say is that BMW's are made for the drag strip because it can run a better time than a 370z? :rollseyes:


Hey coop, i checked out those runs on youtube and the ones with your STI those were sweet. that was some good driving in the subaru, too by you and your tuner. I'd love to check out your TTg37 at a northeast meet hopefully in the spring, looks fun

Hey Jeff,

Thanks. The opening run on my Subaru vid, had me whacking away at my shifter. Violent! My best was an 11.16"....
You can see how subtle, yet effective, Junior's shifting and launch were. He went three tenths quicker. I'm still not talking to him.

And that's how Flippin' HARD it is to go fast at the drags.

That's still a good time and was some good driving. supposedly launching those AWD Cars is very hard. i watched the videos, i love how stock the G sounds even with all the HP. i'm guessing you sold the subaru for the G? why didn't you go for the G37Sx? you seem to like AWD if you had the subaru..

yes your tuner's driving was very good. that was brave of you to let him launch the car that hard hahaah.

Haha, great video. It really did sound like you were going to rip the shifter off. 10.85 is awesome. My '05 STi made 490ish whp and like 475 tq, but I never got it to the drags. Spent much more time on the track. Would have loved to turn it over to a good driver and see if it could make 10s.

Did the AEM give you launch control capability? It sounded like it at the line. Getting that big GT35R spun up was key.

chuck hasn't broken into the 11's yet, though I have no doubt he will be running high 11's next season. his setup is at least 400whp, if not more.

Damn the torpedoes. I've figured out my boost controller and Atco will be 45° and sunny tomorrow. They ran all day today. I called.

Just sayin'....

Now to convince my wife it's a good idea.

Four passes in the elevens. Best of 11.74@118.

A great day, regardless of not beating my prior best.

Got a vid from the inside cab and from the outside stands, I'll post somewhere in the next few days.

My tuner John took the vid from behind. Nice and clear launch with the tires howling to second.

Best 60' time: 1.76". Starting the get this off the line better.

To the topic: It was mentioned in the lanes that some 'Infiniti' ran a 10.9 with a Stillen supercharger in the past month. I'd LOVE to have seen that. Ghost rider....

Default 11.74 et - NOT tens....

I mentioned I'd post a vid. I actually compiled two of them to give the FULL experience.

It's 720hd, blow it up.

Or link: Infiniti G37 Drag Strip ? 11.74" et ? From inside and stands - YouTube

I love the tire howling from the rear. I don't get to listen to that.
