I hope you are coming to the event on 4/27/13 at NTR. I would love to see your car run.

Not sure yet. Depends on how things go next weekend.

When the track is running street cars, then the surface is usually pretty bad for drag radial cars.

Awesome pictures.

I went to Dragway 42 yesterday, if anyone has been there they know its not exactly the best track. I was swerving to miss pot holes after the traps. But I still managed to catch a pretty good sized piece of asfalt one time. Best run was 12.47 @ 118 with a 2.17 60', Track was pretty slick. Car was way more consistent then I was, trapped 118mph all day long. Only times it didn't was when my clutch went straight to the floor and burnt up, one time I missed 3rd and then one was 117.7 on a clean run. Im going to be ordering a clutch now, you could smell my clutch pretty much all day when I went down the track minus a hand full of times. Ill post up some more slips later today.

I agree. Norwalk is one of the best tracks in the country.

I will be racing at Norwalk too, since it wasn't open yet I went to 42 this week. I might go up to Norwalks spring warm up but I won't be racing at all, don't think my clutch can handle the traction up their with how it did on ice at 42

. Might have my new clutch by then but even then I won't want to race on it right out of the box.

I ran potenza RE070 285/35r20. I was very disappointed in the loss of grip when i put the factory goodyears back on. The potenza tires gripped as well as the cars with full on track tires! I have potenza RE070 in 305/30R20 as well. I plan on running them on the stock wheels all 4 corners when the good years are shot. Im not sure how the lower profile will look tho... but it works for the Z/28

Ok, I was thinking about possibly going this weekend but either im not going to have my new clutch and being running on my old one or be on a new clutch that hasn't been broken in at all(in which case I won't even run it). Also its going to be EXTREMELY busy being that it is Norwalks spring warm up. Just let me know when you want to go, I don't work weekends and normally get off at 3:30 during the week so if you want to wait until their friday or wednesday nights thats fine too.
