Im headed to the track with my 03 coupe in the morning and just wanted to see what you guys think i should expect to see out of it....

I have nismo cold air, greddy evo 2 exhaust, auto tranny, 295/30 ps2 tires. also my gas light is on and its 40 miles away so hopefully ill be almost out to put race gas in it, or is even worth the difference in gas... have 93 octane in it anyways..

its only an 1/8 mile track, closet 1/4 mile is over 3 hrs...

im thinking 9 flat or maybe high 8's

 

9.22

 

High 9's at 75mph for the first couple of runs, with a best of 9.4@76mph.

 

should i even bother with the 110 octane race fuel?

 

It would be a waste. The car isn't going to be running enough timing to take advantage of the octane.

Stick with the 93, and good luck.

 

thanks for the info, in my 03 350z with headers, kinetix hi flo cats, nismo catback, nismo cold air, and slammed to ground on tein coilovers. I ran a 8.964, with a 60' of 2.051. da was 3086 with your density calculator.... what would that have been in a 1/4?

 

track altitude is 180 ft

 

That's good for a 13.8 flat. What was your trap speed then? And was that an automatic as well?

 

I smell a reason to go to the beach. Where is this track near the coast? I see the OP is from Panama City so I'm guessing not too far from there.

 

it bout 30 miles north of panama city, dont like the track though and today everyone was getting real high times and low traps.... my best was a 9.412 with a 60' of 2.098.. best i trapped was 76mph.... my car was real slow in 1st today as well...


and my z was a 6speed and trap alot higher... had same rims on my z also

 

my car did say it was 108 outside though, kinda too hot for me

 

density altitude is 3600

 

 

Alright, you call it on most all of our times at the track, dyno pulls, and you usually quote the TV announcers *before* they say something - can we at least limit the creepy predictions to the people we actually KNOW.

 

yeah thats a pretty good prediction...
also i ran the a/c of full on two of my runs and it didnt affect my time at all. my second fastest was actually with a/c on.... thought that was suppossed to hurt the horsepower and e/t?
