is the z going to be forever bound as the car that looks good on paper, but cant win it all. we need less drag racers and more drivers out to get more development

Look at my raw times, I coned away 2nd. The car, atleast ours, is plenty developed and plenty capable of winning it we just did not drive up the that level this year.

I did notice that. Nice driving! Damn orange things in the way... Cost me 3rd in BSP in '08 too. Oh well, there's always next year!

Did you get any video? I'd like to see the course from the car.

Lol! Yes coned due to big old fat butt! Raw times don't count for nothing. No way a 370z will win C Stock ever. Especially if we see anything close to West course again.

Someone with your driving ability would do better in top car in class.

Here is FP I built with fast driver on west course. Not bad for 175 Whp 2100 lb car.

I'm not sure if this is a compliment or insult, but either way I'll be back next year in the Z for one more shot. After that I'll be headed to SP so you better watch your back.

It's compliment with point that 370z is big wide car. Your chance of coning is higher than top cars in the class. So you could drive better and still have to take wider slalom lines than your miata friends. Last I checked no trophies for raw times. Lol!

No worries on SP in two years I'll be back in FP by then! You go get em! Next year I will likely be lone SP 370z. If you want SP setup tips I'm happy to share. Learning a lot about the car from the 370 Grand Am race team. Taking road race secrets and tweaking for SP. Haven't seen several things I have done published on forums.
