That was my point that jnaut couldn't have had cams on his 12.24 run since there are none in existance for the Z and VVEL has not been cracked. Perhaps I am misunderstanding your points. |

I think there was a little bit of confusion on both parts. I thought you were implying that the stock 370Z in general does not have any cams and that VVEL controlled everything.

The Z however does not have them out yet. The current Camaro we are comparing the Z to does have it, which helps with the power... and that for a V6 vs. a V8 with mods done that being able to beat a Z isn't really saying that much considering that all we have basically is all air mods, yet we aren't even talking this car running more than 3-4 tenths faster with equal drivers... and some may argue the Z could still win. A track is based more on conditions, driver, etc etc than on what it could actually do on paper... which is the reason we race. I myself am not a big fan of 1/4 racing. It's nice to see what a car will do with certain mods... etc... but I just use that as a gauge. I would much rather use the Z for what it was intended for. Much like the 2 Evo's I owned Prior to this car and so many people could run good 1/4 times, but the car wasn't made for that. It's fun sure, but for me personally, doing some road racing would be much more fun. |

Man my thread has gone crazy!! LOL. Just an update I am back overseas and we didn't get to line up with the way the weather was being at the track. The problem I had at home was wheel hop then I threw on the drs which did help some but not a whole lot. My best trap speed was 107.8 and best time was a 13.2 by my buddy so I will have to do some suspension mods to see if it will help. I do have the differential bushings but didn't get a chance to put them on before I left. Maybe in the months to come while I am gone they will crack the vvel and we can see some better times at the track for our Zs.

of LS1 drivers... that's your thing. A straight line is fine until we come up on a few turns too. Like I said before... why don't they do a 1/4 and then a road track and see how things pan out?
