My tired old DE still has some legs left I suppose. Not bad for a dedicated autocross car. It was the first time it had been fired up since the last event of the year. Still on 850/700 springs, custom koni's, and worst alignment in the history of drag racing. It was the first time I went down the strip in 2ish years. I will probably re-align the rear when I run about this time next year. It's a full prep (minus aero and E85) BSP autocross car. With an E85 tune, more aggressive plenum porting, and re-align....I think it can go 12.60-12.70 range next December. We'll see.

I don't do road racing because of expense, roll cage & far distance of road tracks.

But your profile says you live in Monticello, which has a track. Dude. :shakes head:

OP, It's just a numbers game. Far more mustang owners drag race thier cars than 350/370z owners. If they do, they either just do it for fun on ocassion or are really serious about. Also depends a lot on the track conditions, weather, temperature and most importantly the driver. Mechanically, you're right, "332 and 350hp" should be enough to run in the 12's under the right circumstances. Personally it seems like you're coming off as someone who's just here to troll the forum, but I'll give you the benifit of the doubt. You already seem to know the answer to your own question though.

The annual dues are 100k plus all the other expenses, dude.
As soon as I make my first 10 million dollars, I'll join, dude.

Looks to me like only people that know how to drive, enjoy this sport:)
Just look at all that have 330-340+ H.P. who can't break 14 seconds.

yup, and far more 350's than 370's. And let's face it, the profile of a Mustang owner is much more prone to being a stoplight racer than a refined Z owner.

Right Red_Zed and Steve? :icon17:

There also a lot of folks who know that drag racing your vehicle will beat the snot out of it and cost you a lot of money in repairs. There are also a lot of folks who drag their cars not to break 13's but also just to have some fun. :tup:

The Z is a road car. And a good one. I'd put my road racing experience against you on a road course any day of the week. You can go in a straight line for 1/4 mile with very good times. I know how to drive.

So with all your mods, what have you done? dude.
