Well guys, no 14.7s like I was hoping. The timeslip "shack" got hit with lightening so we didn't get timeslips. I don't know what my 60 foots were.

I went out friday night to represent us Maxima guys at the annual "Grand Prix Gathering". The stock GTPs were running 15.1-15.3@89-90mph. The pullied (3.0-3.5" pullies) and modified GTPs were running 14.2-14.9@92-98mph. The NOS GTPs were hitting lower 13s. The GTP guys were about .3-.5 seconds off their best ets.

I was only able to run twice because there were so many GTPs. I was spinning thru most of 1st and chirping 2nd hard as usual. I ran a 14.9@94mph. On my second run I ran a 15.0@96.5mph!!!!!! Damn, look at that trap speed. The weather wasn't even good (70s, high humidity) and the engine was baking. Needless to say, the GTP boys realized that "if" my Max had traction, it is as quick as a pullied GTP.

Later on in the evening I ran one of the GTP guys on the streets. We ran from a 15mph roll and I put 1 car on him by 80mph. He still had his bracket et on the windshield of 14.65.

So the VTH or whatever its called didn't help your traction? Man someone needs to invest in some drag radials! hehe .
