Congrats!
And you're local.
I'm in north Phoenix.
I have done more full track time and only been to the drags once. At the drags my car was in full street trim including a full tank of fuel, 20" wheels, full stereo, etc, etc. I could not get traction to save my life.
I spun through first and second getting traction in 3rd. I ran a 12.3 at 126.5. Based on the power:weight and my trap speed, if I could get traction it could be a mid to low 11's car.
And you're local.

Those are not bad times considering the amount of power and having traction issues. My prior car was a 95 Mustang GT 5.0. It dyno'd at 434.5 rwhp and 452 rwt. I ran consistent 11.8 at 131 mph. But that was with slicks, lol. Where about in AZ is there a good track spot for both styles?
Wow that's a great trap speed for that kind of power level!
There are two drag strips: Firebird Raceway (south east phoenix area on your way out of town on I-10 east) and Speedworld way up north west off US-60 and Happy Valley Road.
For road racing Firebird has three tracks that the different leagues use. There is also Phoenix International Raceway (PIR) that does NASCAR and other race events where they use one of the oval turns and the inside for the rest. PIR is out west off I-10.

Thank you. The car was essentially being built purely for drag purposes. I am stationed at Ft. Huachuca with my wife and son consequently getting that far north on a daily basis to check out tracks is difficult. Guess for now I will have to stick to back road driving to Bisbee or Tombstone. LOL. I got a question you can probably answer. Do the earlier model G35's have headlight fading/discoloration issues? I have seen pictures of mine but have yet to physically see it in person. If they do have issues, which years are better and would you suggest me swapping to?
