Awesome, can't wait to see it up close!

Come to our first SAU:SA club social event and join up - PM me if you want more details. Would love to have another V35 in the club! We have a few, but you can never have too many Vs

What car did you drive before - I take it you were at one of the SAU/SASupra track or driver training days? I would have had my old 4 door R34 with gold Gram Lights back then.

^{first go at 1/4mile}

haha I was the guy that came up to you are the drags on Sunday and told you to come to the V35 meet this Sunday

Did you get a decent time out of it in the end?

[szymonsta]

hi mate nice of you to come up and say hi.

only did 2 runs as the waiting between runs was pretty long and had a family commitment that evening.

best time was a 14.2 - a bit dissapointing!!

a stock 350Z/V35 is meant to do about 14.4 so i was predicting mid 13s for my first time out..

several reasons for performing worse than expected i think:

- inexperience at drag racing and quick launches

- not enough heat in the tyres due to my piddly burnouts (as you mentioned!)

- traction issues off the line

- traction issues changing to 2nd

- being a retard and hitting the rev limiter a couple of times (i think this stems from 6 years of driving a type-r integra that you had to rev the SHIT out of)

i expected not to have as much issues with traction considering my comparatively small power and torque and decent sized street tyres. lesson to be learnt i think is that, like circuit driving, tires can make a HUGE difference!

Bridgestone RE-11s fitted at Sinergy yesterday

Hey mate welcome to the forums, at least your first run at the drags wasn't as bad as mine - did a pathetic 1 pegger burnout, left VDC ON during the race thinking "this will help my grip" ended up running 16 something HAHA.

Love the white in the V's

Also: Always enjoy listening to the announcer when they mention our cars.. "not a GTR just the standard GT series" lol.
