The 13.23 was the best pass, would have been better but the car lost tracksion at the 1/8 and 1100 ft distances on the track. The 2nd to 3rd shift was a heart stopper as when shifted gears it spun and wiggled the back of the car. It did the same thing on the 3rd to 4th gear change. (the track lost grip and a few people oiled the track down)
I can tell you what kills the 370 z Its the oil temp. 212 to 240 tonight, My car runs the best at 165 to 175.
The burn outs got better and the best one was in the MM mode shiftng manually. The ecu stll tried to cut the rpm. The car needs line lock.
Any ways I want to thank Sibze for coming out and helping me tonight.
The 550 mustang ran 12.0 so i do feel that the 370 Z held its own tonght out there.
On one pass i forgot to turn the AC off (cool runnings).
I also got beat my a cobalt. I had him and with 200 ft to go he blew by me

You're my inspiration and are truly helping me decide where to go with my 370z haha! On a side note, what did the Cobalt run?

Thanks for the Video's, but do me/us a favor......... Zoom in down the track as they do there runs please. Don't know the track but do they show you times? Glad to see there are people here that love the 1/4................ even if we have a short attention span! :stirthepot:

One more thing........... what backspacing on your wheel are you guys using when you run your DR's? I have some from my 06 G35 I hope to still use. Thanks for the info.

Damn!! good runnin guys, yea the heat sucks but when fall gets here woohoo! I planned to be back at the track next week since i have my headers and exhaust now. But i have some O2 sensor drama, and the car runs like dogshit .hopefully it will be covered under warranty(cross my fingers)! i am towing it there tomorrow. If not then i guess ill be buying 1200$ worth of O2 sensors, what a waist of $$. Nissan ****** me by cross threading them when the car was assembled!!

The back rims are 18 x 10.5 + 15
Volk T -37

UPDATE::: just found a set of used oxygen sensors in miami, off a g37 (exact same part number) for 200$ woohoo!!
