02 Se Auto 14.990@ 93

I will say it was for sure a crazy night, I started out driving up to baltimore maryland from chesapeake va (4 hours 32 minutes worth of driving) To go to capitol raceway. Well VYRUS and i get there and its closed due to family illness. ( 35 minues). So we go back to Vyrus apartment to get directions to MIR. (35minues). Well MIR was closed. So we ended up finding a track called cecil raceway. So we drive there (1.5 hours) and get in the staging lanes and wait for ALMOST 3 HOURS. Because some douche in a marauder blew his car up. Finally Its time for me to get my 1 RUN in that i had been driving all day for.

I aired the fronts down to about 17PSI. I ended up with about a 2.4 .60' . I think my biggest problem was the republic tires im rolling on (i dont think they were EVER intended for the dragstrip lol) But, ill have Pics+Vid+ Timeslip up when i get home tonight. I got pretty nasty wheel hop which surprised me a bit i guess. But nevertheless its fairly obvious my .60 blew. The full rundown of my run will be up tonight. Enjoy.

Nice dude. Your tire pressure is too low. Don't go below 25psi.

Hey man a bunch of us maxima guys from MD had planned a meet at capitol the same day you went but we found out it was closed when we got down there. I wish I would have known I would have went up to cecil too. But nice times and we might setup another meet there next week if you want to come. Check the DC forum for more info.
