Take it to the Track my friend !!

15.1 , im still working on getting into the Maxima Hall of Fame .. you need a 14 or lower. im all set to go to the track but IM BROKE ! And that my friend is as sad as gargling with a slighty salted egg yolk for 3.5 minutes, and then trying to blow it out your nose.

there is a timeslips section around here somewhere full of times, you should check that out. over in 1/4 mile something another. actually this post will prolly get moved that way soon.

as for as the timing yourself.. how did you do that..? and dont be sad just yet... if you timed yourself there is too much room for error... so forget about that BIG 16 for now.

where do you live and what kinda max are you driving...? Bottom line: you need to take it to the track my friend !!

well i had a passenger time me actually.
i've got a '97 gxe with stillen intake and y-pipe, an unorthodox racing crank pulley, and an apex 115mm muffler

i live in ridgecrest,ca. ten miles from inyokern, which is the oldest track still running in america. no more races for the rest of the year though!

it just seems like its really slow. of course, ive only had it 4 days.

definatly check the timeslips forum. most of the guys who have run the 1/4 also have it in sigs... keep an eye on those too. hit up the track and try it. i waited a year before goin, but after bein once realized its not a big deal at all. just go and make sure you've got a lead foot
