Hey peeps went to the track today it was pretty fun, but i wasn't sure if i should be happy or dissapointed with my times. My best run out of a million truly crappy ones because for some reason my clutch keeps slipping or i keep grinding to second gear i ran 15.021. This is the track in palmdale everyone says, subtract .3-.5 and thats how much it would be on a normal track at a good elevation. does 14.5-14.7 sound good as far as a stock G with pop charger and z tube goes? (spare tire and jackhammer where removed as well and it was on a full tank of gas.)

Let me know yoru input / advice on how to do better next time around.

 

I ran a 14.7 at LACR, on a stock 03 6mt, so by taking off the .3-.5 i ran a 14.4-14.2....

What are you launching at? i launch at 2500 rpms and feather it through..

 

Take lessons man....jeez. Don't post times like that! It gives us a bad name.

 

wow our cars really are slow

 

Thank god u removed the JACKHAMMER you would have ran a hell of a lot slower!!

No sweat.... learn how to drive your car better im sure you could do better than that. also what was ur 60ft times and ur trap speed?

 

'04 6MT, with just K&N drop-in, I did 14.675 1/4mile.

 

2004 G35 6spd.14.385sec. in Comerce, GA. 71F. 28psi rear tire highflow cats and plenum. Rest is stock. Oh, Nismo oil cap haaaaahaa. I was spinning too much on take off though. Budy's '03 350Z 6spd, 14.332sec. (Plenum+Catback)

 

i have a 04 5AT and all i have is an OEM Ztube and my car is a base model and i had full interior and spare in the back and ran a 14.45

 

I know this is off topic but anyone notice that while your shifting, as soon as you get back on the gas, the tachometer shows revs kinda fluctuating between 5-6k rpm and then it stabilizes and starts moving normally again?

 

No?

I think your clutch is slipping.

 

whoever is posting their times i hope you guys were doing in LACR plamdale.

 

was this in palmdale?

 

I just put my time into the formula for LACR in palmdale where i was at. 15.021 is equal to 14.57 at sea level. Ive only been driving stick for two months hopefully i can do better next time i got and ill probably go on a half a tank of gas. i was completely full past the E.

 

those times are great, considering u have been driving stick for only 2 months. First time i went there with my car (only had 6month experiance) managed to do 14.9. I am going there on friday, october 6 with 3 other Gs and my cousin's IS350 hoping to do 14.6 or 14.5. Its on socal meeting section.

 

ahh man.. 3 other gs.. damn i wish i could come i think im going next wednesday maybe i can sneak out or sumthing haha.
