2005 G35c 6MT - new stock times tonight
Got 5 runs in tonight down at Cecil County, MD. I am a little disappointed I went home without a 13 second time slip, but the mph definitely shows its there. The car actually hooked up REALLY well. I kept raising my launch rpms a little at a time, and it still had room for more - I just didn't want to launch it too hard and smoke the tires off the line. One or two more passes and I think I could have left with a 13.9X. My best time was 14.05 @ 102.3mph on a 2.17 60ft. Here are all my runs. I picked up the car exactly 2 weeks ago tonight, and figured I'd get some stock baseline runs in - the car was incredibly consistent for being its inaugural run.

Launch:
The clutch engages pretty far out, so when I staged I let off the clutch to the point right where it starts to grab, then backed off just a tad. I took the rpms up to between 2500-2800 and then slipped the clutch a little bit pretty quickly, and as soon as I start rolling I drop the clutch all the way and then floor the gas.
Shifting:
I have the factory shift light set at 7000rpm. On the 1-2 shift I was shifting a tick before it went solid red. The 2-3 shift I let it just hit solid red for a brief second then shifted. 3rd gear I played with a little bit. On the 4th pass I let the rpms wind out a little more, netting me the much higher trap speed than the previous runs. On the 3-4 shift I wasn't even really paying attention to the shift light, and instead went off the tach (since it moves slower in the higher gears and I have more time to watch it than the lower gears). I have heard people say that when the tach shows 7300, its actually at 7000. So I let the needle hit between 7200-7300 then shifted into 4th, which was literally right before I crossed the traps. I could probably almost make it through the lights in 3rd gear on the rev limiter lol.
Hopefully that was detailed enough haha.
