^^ That is awesome man. I am glad someone opened this topic about 1/4 miles times. I am eager to compare the following:

Manual without sport package vs manual with sport package
Auto non sport package vs manual non sport package
Auto with sport package vs Auto without sport packgage
Manual with sport package vs Auto with sport package

Why I care so much? well, there is a big difference when running rear Slip diff, you can cut better 60' times thus run quicker 1/4 mile times. Auto vs Manual? well it seems like the modern autos are killing the manual, looks at the steptronic from BMW and you will see why I am saying it.

Last but not least, I want to compare trap speeds on the 370Z rolling on 18" and 245's vs 19" and 275's, I think the 18" rims package will pull on the hwy on the 19" rim package , very curious to see. If I ever get a 370z I am inclined to get the Auto.

Very nice times man! Thanks for posting them, you are officially the first one on this site to do so as far as I'm aware.

Well I saw a few nice write ups for round track runs but yea I haven't seen anyone else post anything regarding 1/4 mile runs. Hopefully I'll inspire a few others to get theirs out there as well. Thats the beauty of having a warranty. Now I just gotta keep my mods toned down to stay within the parameters of that warranty!

I tend to wait atleast a good 30-45 min between runs with the engine off hood open and platic top off the engine so that it cools down plenty well before my next run. I've seen no oil temp problems thus far or any other issues for that matter. It's a great straight track car if your smart about it!

You should probably leave the engine running for 5-10 minutes to ensure that it cools down evenly and you don't get hot spots. Remember the oil is cooled by the water so if neither is circulating it's not going to cool as well. It's probably not that big a deal at the strip as you're only flat out for a few seconds.

Hey im also in San Antonio and have wanted to hit the track...just that its pretty far (live close to UTSA).

i have a 6spd so it would be a nice comparison, when are you planning on going again?

Sadly I won't actually be in San Antonio until June. Currently I still live in North Carolina for now, but Im moving to San Antonio permanently in June so I just went ahead and put it as my location on my profile. But when i get there I do plan on hitting up the track a bit so I'll get in contact with you on here and we'll set something up.

Default Track in San Antonio

I went recently to the track in San Antonio and I left my time slip at work. (I also live close to USAA and UTSA)

I remember 60 being a 2.0 and my 1/4 mile time was 13.51 at 106.1mph.

Updated:
Reaction: .4619
60 Ft: 2.0889
330 Ft: 5.8341
1/8 ET: 8.8605
1/8 MPH: 81.79
1000 ET: 11.4154
1000 MPH : N/A
1/4 ET: 13.51
1/4 MPH: 106.1

I have the base sports package with 6MT. When I get the time slip from work, I'll post the rest.
