Well, the local track opened up after completely redoing their racing surface to complete concrete. So it was definately not hooking up off the line due to the lack off good rubber. anyways i ran 6 times and my best time was my first time( i went right after a tubbed out car and was able to launch on the rubber he just laid down.)

60ft............2.15
330ft..........6.02
594ft ET......8.5
1/8Mi ET.....9.14
1/8Mi MPH.79.07

my average times were 9.2@78 other than my first best one.
if i would of had some sticky tires on the back to where I could of completely brake torqued it and not spun, times would of gone down to 8.9 or so. I was only able to torque stall it to about 1500 and it still was getting some spin.

 

Good run. That's aout a 14.25 1/4 mile. Do you have a 6-speed or auto?

I hope more people take their car to the track so we can start seeing some times.

 

Never mind....it's an auto. Didn't finish reading your post.

 

Impressive. The best my 03 5AT sedan could muster was a mid 9.2@77mph in 1/8 mile. That was good for low 14.3s. Your 07 5AT should be able to do 14.1-14.2s.

 

i will go back after they have had some funny car and prostock type events. more rubber that is laid down, the better i can launch. i want 9flat dernit!

 

It's a rough video I know, I will make a better one next time I am out on a clear road. 0-60 5.3 seconds.


2007 G35 Sedan Auto. 7,800 miles.

 

Good run...

Over at the east coast, I have no doubt that someone will be able to reach 13.6 on a stock 6MT. (13.9 has been done for an 03 G Sedan over there ).

We west coast owners have to accomodate ourselves to our average-to-crappy tracks

.

 

i never tracked my coupe like i always wanted to...but i will def 100% track this car very soon. It will be my first time ever in my life running at the track. My fingers are crossed that i get a good run. I def can drive stick very well but I hope anxiety dont get the best of me lol.

 

Brainerd Int. Raceway, (Donnybrooke) is def. in my imd. future as well, even though mine is a new X,, the only thing ya have to do is concentrate on cutting a good lite!! cause your not gonna spin.....

 

I got out to the track this week.
07 G35x auto...bracket car.

Best run was: 2.11 60 ft, 9.09 1/8th, 14.05 @ 101.55. All three runs were at 14.0-14.1 @ 101.x mph.

My buddies 5.7 hemi Magnum was running 14.6ish.

 

^^^nice times!!

 

WOW!! those are real nice times!! that would have blew my old Audi S4 away!! (2004) that thing did only mid to upper 14's.... and only mid 90's or so.....

 

I havnt practiced launching this car yet, but once I do ill get it down to science quick. I am really conviced that I can run this car mid-high 13's at the track all day. The mag times of 13.9 for this car are def an understatement I dont wanna hear it. Id post some reasons why but it will just get deleated by mods. And no I'm not talking about cutting through traffic like a shmuck either.

 

So what is the best way to launch a 5AT 07? Stand on the brake and floor it until RPM is +1,500 then release?

 

no idea i have a 6mt...but that sounds about rite exceppppt for the fact that you said

floor it untill 1500 rpm...i dont think you have to do much flooring to get to 1500 rpms lol....and i wouldnt floor this car from a launch either, you will probably spin way to hard.
