Yeah im the newbie
Hey whats up guys, i just got my 370 about a week ago, juuuuust came back from the track actually. I had trouble getting the launch right, all i kept doing was breaking loose no matter what i did, my best time was a 13.98 sad to say, i know it can be a whole lot faster, i just need someone to point me in the right direction, ill post pics of the z a little later when i have time, but any advice that you guys have for me would be awesome, thanks and hope to get to know some of you.

Welcome & congrats on getting your 370Z. Have fun at the track. Sounds like you are talking about the 1/2 mile here. I don't think our car was built for the 1/4, but probably more so for going around the track.

They do not make it w launch control. If you ever end up getting it UpRev tuned they can add a launch control map. When inquiring about which parts to go with try using the search button first. There are endless threads about intakes, exhausts and what not. Congrats on the Z and welcome to the online family

Welcome bro! Our cars are a bit touchy, it's hard to get a smooth launch when you're not used to the clutch, just keep practicing!
