Dude AZ you really do not know what you are talking about. A 2007 350Z managed a 13.8 in magazines and yet my buddy ran a 13.3 on a local track, with the best being a 13.1... that's much better than the 13.8 "professional" times. Get over it, Seer is better than you.

I simply used the magazine times as an example, I know they aren't accurate to the T. As for my experience, I do have some. I've dragged all my cars, not my g yet, and have beaten the magazine times, but only by 1/10th or so, not 6/10ths. I just find it odd for 2 reasons.
1) no where else can I find anywhere someone with a stock g37 getting close to those numbers.
2) the lack of time slips.
If someone posted they put down 350whp with bolt on's they would get flamed every 5 min. until a dyno was posted. I just need some slips, then maybe I'll move to PA and practice, practice,practice my 1/4 runs till I get some crazy times

, and a dyno sheet means nothing without 1/4 times

Seer - good job bro! I eat, sleep and breath drag racing and its about time people start getting these cars down the track. I believe your times 100% and sucks its hard for others to believe just because their great times, someone had to do it! lol hopefully i can get mines down the track and back you up!

well a DR is just an R compound DOT tire, it's not a drag slick like you're thinking of. Here is the tread pattern of the model I had used. Looks like a regular tire, unless you look at the fat tread blocks/contact patches.
In the world of race tires, this is how it goes for most aggressive grip:
Street Tire > Drag Radial > Half Slick > Full Slick

Did you put them on the stock rims?
I need to get me a set and head to the track before they close it for the winter.

I'm just messin' with ya....Anyways to the OP, with Drag Radials I believe it. Were you on 1/4 tank of gas? Did you have spare tire in? Did you heat up the tires really nice with a physical run or at a standstill? Nice times bro, would love to see a timeslip!

for me the ET is believable with that nasty 60' he got but I'm still stuck on the Trap. 108mph trap on a car that weight over 3600lbs is no stock... I dont think a drop of 60F in temp will yield you over 60whp+.. One member here went to Etown last Sunday with DA of -275FT and only trapped 102mph. I believe the OP's DA was about mid 400FT base on the info he gave. The car ran faster with a higher DA? A good driver can only give you some help improving the trap. Anyways this just my .02 and I was not there I'm just chiming in...lol

my car has never trapped less than 103 from going through a lot of these slips

not sure if they come in a 19, I was running an 18" version on the rear, with some borrowed wheels.
