I cant remember his name but it starts with hlh maybe - I think he tried going to the track but had a hard time getting trction on street tires. I think he got a 13.2 with lots of wheel hop and spiining the tires. So with a good launch or slicks or something looks like he might drop into the 12's

Yea your talkin about harold. He will no doubt be in 12's with traction. I look for him to run around 12 psi when he puts slicks and a new clutch in. He should be goin back to the track soon.

He did a 13.9 @ like 100 MPH. Of course with some tuning, more PSI and a new clutch he will be in the 12's easy.

Building a race track, lol!

I went 13.2 @ 108mph on STREET TIRES and FACTORY (slipping) CLUTCH.. 8.5psi - this is factory injectors, stock internals, etc..

(I can go to 12psi, but cant get a clean run b/c of clutch)

With a new clutch, slicks, and 12psi ... ???

What track did you run this at?? Reason I ask is because when I was at Beech Bend Raceway a week ago there was some Acura guys that said they saw a 4th gen Maxima with a custom turbo running 13's??

Actually the 16th is what I meant to type. I can only go on Saturdays. I wish it wouldn't close....

If I go I will let you know.
