For those that havent visited Summit Point, this is one VERY dangerous track, with almost no open run-off.....unless you call tire stacks and concrete walls...the run-off. At least a half dozen cars had some pretty major incidents. Fortunately, nobody was injured, and the cars can be easily repaired.
Here are the final results for the Nissan group. We also podiumed with the Evo in 2 classes as well.
Modified RWD
1st place Forged Performance G35 Robert Fuller 1:36.569 (Philthy's car)
2nd place Scott Burner Turbo S2000 1:37.858
3rd Place Peter Farrell RX7 1:38.289
4th Place Forged Performance 350Z 1:38.483
Unlimited RWD
1st Place Forged Performance 350Z Sharif Abdelbaset 1:36.779
2nd Place Mark Simonz Arial Atom 1:39.814
3rd Place Michael Doughery Super 7 1:43.554

I was only there Saturday instructing, but did see some carnage. About six cars bit it that day, and reportedly 7-9 more on Sunday. That was by far the absolute worst I have seen at that track. Last year's RTA event was my first time on that track, and it was nowhere near as bad. Mechanical breakdowns... yes, but far fewer wrecks.
Btw, that S2000 that finished second was NA, not turbo'd, with limited mods as he runs Honda Challenge.

Hey Sharif,
I was pointed to this site due to your post about the redline event.
My S2000 has 223rwhp and is not turbo or supercharged. It is has very little engine work (intake, exhaust and AEM EMS).
I was expecting your G35 to blow past me like i was standing still. Was it making 450whp?

You are a great driver, and ran really fast...congratulations. This is a good example...and I have said this before...where horsepower doesnt win road races. It's all about car weight, driver, the track layout, and setup as well.

thanks
goodluck at other time attacks.

Hey Scott, sorry if I mistated your car. I wasnt running the G35...that one was driven by Robert Fuller and about 450whp. I was driving the 350Z, which has 400whp and weighs 3125lbs without me in it. Our cars are much heavier than yours, so we have to compensate with more power.
