Lots of potential left. What clutch again? Do you have a slick/skinny setup for it?

Your car came out great. Your trap speed will definitely get you in the 9's with some better 60ft. I'm using MT Drag radials on my 240z. 1.5 60fts launching on 5psi of boost. I'm really hoping to get my 240z back out this season.

Thanks. I was asking about you over on HBZ. Looking forward to seeing you finish it up.

I'm typically not the biggest Z car fan.

But damn, this is such a fantastic looking/well built car. Defiantly a car I would buy/drive for sure.

Nice work.

I was out there last weekend also doing some noob passes to see how my turbo 5.3 would do. It was nice meeting you. Congrats on times/trap speeds. Your car is getting it done. I am also wanting to go back this friday. Maybe I can get more than 1 good pass in. Hope to see you out there.

Hey whats up man! Nice meeting you too. I want to go this friday but I have a vette I need to put back together. I ended up ordering a line lock and we are going to setup my two step also. Im hoping to get out there next friday. Let me know if you go tomorrow i might just say screw it and head out. Also what did you end up running?

Thanks FF! I am very excited to see what you do with that S30.. If you paid anything close to what he was asking than you made out like a bandit. Im pumped that the car is staying in the "community." Im looking forward to a build thread soon.

Unfortunately the car was nothing like the seller described. Honestly I was very disappointed with it when it arrived. It's in "rough shape" at best. I would never have bought it if I knew it was in this poor of shape. Seller completely ignores my calls and emails regarding this. Pretty bum deal.

That sucks. Too bad there are crooks in the world. Good luck on the ride.

Good lord...I remember talking to you in a thread about the MaxJax and remember seeing the Z in the pics but had NO idea you had all this going on.

Love the video against the ZR1. It sounded badass but you left him and QUICK!

Dang man, 142 mph trap is rocking pretty good. I wasn't expecting that...lol

Maybe I don't want to line up next to you if you get it sorted out and turned up.

Took off early to hit the track. Better '60 times or bust.. Or shall I say break.
