quiter....

Nahhhh when work calls work calls.... plus its way to hot here!

i hear ya... i like money. how hot is it really? its damn hotttt down here, humidity is like 1000%!!

It was 110 here yesterday not sure today

To hot to race the car tonight. dynoed t last night and it made 304 rwhp. Temp was 94.3 degrese. Intake ar temp was 100.
The humdex was over 105 today.

I went and it was def too hot to race... BUT we did anyway, lol..

My best was a 13.4@103.9 , Basically .5 slower ET and 4 MPH slower than last trip when it was 71 degrees.

It was 103 degrees when the track opened at 6 and 94 degrees when we left at 8pm.. 61% humidity i think ? Im gonna find out the DA, but conditions were terrible to say the least..

got a decent 60 = 2.01 60 but with the slicks again that disapointing.... but even with the 2.0 I couldnt do better than a 13.4. Oil temps were below 220 for 2 out of 6 runs and around 240 for the other 4... The car took a thrashing tonight. I tried to let it sit , than they announced the early closing time and forced me to run it HOT.

IMO it was a waste of my time..


There was litteraly about 10 cars at the track... 10 people who wasted their time , lol.

I Also launched the car at 4500 RPMS and it gripped like crazy and actualy bogged down every time... I refused to launch any higher, the heat just messed everything up.. Last time 3500 would produce wheel spin but still pulling 1.95's , absolutely no wheel spin tonight with the MT Streets.

My friends automatic that weighed in 150 lbs more than me due to kit, system, etc. managed a 13.3 @ 105 which was pretty good.. Both have full bolt ons/tune.... Im guessing my car or its tune is a little more whacked out from the heat ... my oil hit 270 at one point today. The car just overall felt like crap. My previous best was 12.9 his 13.0.

On a side note a Camaro SS ran a 13.01 @ 107 , with intake and long tube headers... I believe a "flash" of some kind too.. He was hoping for 12.7-8 and got a 13.01, that MPH is about 5 mph slower than I saw the modded SS's going last time out though, but the car still preformed very well....

Hot weather and heatjust kills the performance of the 370z.
It was really hard to run the 12.809 pass.
13.4 is a really good time for the conditions you ran in.

Chuck, did you order this from Nissan or somewhere else?

Z eliminator delete some PM's! Your inbox is full!

i did but it was a waste.. because all i had to do was pull the STOP LAMP fuse to do burnouts... which is by our feet...

chuck, looks like you need an oil cooler! but still good times in that hot weather. how old are the et streets?

Pretty old purchased them used off a guy from my 350z. Saw posts of him using them well over a tear ago. They gripped really well yesterday .

I was going to the track tonight but the weather is just too hot. Its gong to be another day with the humdex near 100 degress.
i want to see how the removng the brake fuse will improve burnouts and 60 ft tmes.

burnouts only help when you have drag tires....street tires suffer a bit if you get them too hot with the burnout. Its better to just do a mini burnout if you're on street tires...

Thats what I heard anyway. Anyone wanna chime in on this?

^ makes sense to some extent, OT hows the SC running RCZ.. had a chance to run it down the quarter yet?
