I personally watched an '02 WS6 run a 12.99 @ 110mph with just a whisper lid and SFCs. So yeah, I guess 109mph bone stock sounds about right.

Let me guess, the person making the claim

Ricers will lie about mods and times to make themselves look good, thats a known fact. And there is no reason to believe those cars were stock, I'm sure they at least had DR's.

This caught my attention.

The 112mph C5 was undoubtably an FRC?

I would like to see proof of a 110mph stock LS1. To my knowledge, it's 109mph.

If the 370Z can trap 109mph and the automatic did 108mph in C&D, all it takes is a low 1.9x 60ft for a 12sec run...

years ago i developed a bone stock C5 list....I will locate it and post it up..C5's are undoubtably faster than the camaros...Birds...Especially in high speed rolls and 1/4 mile trapp speeds and 2 tenths or so faster 1/4 mile wise..

Ill find it...

Ranger Armstrong and Jamie Furman are lying too, huh? Just because somebody drives a certain type of car doesn't make them more prone to lying or telling the truth.

You could actually see the videos of the cars running themselves. the reason the driver gave that the 370z did not go as fast was that it simply was lacking power, those are the words out of his mouth. In actuality the 370z had the 4th highest G average, 1st being ZR1, 2nd R8, and 3rd Caymen S, meaning that the 370z basically had the 4th best grip. if you watch the vids on youtube( just type Camaro SS laps Laguna Seca youll find it) the camaro drifted more, but regardless was faster.

Honestly I question their times...Especially Jamie. I like him as he seems to be a nice guy..But setting a record every time you touch a car on your first outing with it is a bit hard to swallow....

Then again most millionaires dont drag race....He has the time/resources/vehicles to do it. As well I hear he personally rents out the tracks...So He could be 100% legit...

They say it's like this....

11.6 in a stock ACR Viper gen 2

10.9 in a st0ck Z06

\11.0 in a stock ACR Viper gen 4

10.9 in a stock convertable Viper gen 4

No matter who you are it is hard to beleave that one man can posess so much God given skill..But never the less he has witnesses to all these times...

Sorry for the derail...

No weight reduction? What track? Bone stock to the filter and same width tires?

If legit, I guess there can be one. I doubted the 110mph LS2 GTO times too but one is lighter than everyone elses and the other had a short-throw shifter.

One thing that has to be considered is aerodynamics.... A 4th gen f-body is more aerodynamic than a SRT8, which is a brick. I ran a Cherokee SRT8 from a roll and stay ahead by a car. I heard and felt the guy maxing out the motor at top end, but my TA kept going...I know because I own a Magnum SRt8 and the sound is quite familiar to me. The little Trans Am with a few mods kept it at bay. I seriously though he would kick my *** but was wrong...why? IMO aerodynamics...the TA slices through more easily than the Jeep!! Just my 2 cents.

My guess would be the lid and/or catback option was on his. So far without a clean run (spinning bad enough to require letting off) I've picked up close to 1 full MPH with my lid/fra setup over my stock 108.59mph traps in about equal conditions (the most recent being slightly worse than the previous).

Mod for Mod the 370z will keep falling further behind. People still have stock LS1's that race? the ****?

IMO the 370z looks quite good, okay pricing and pretty damn quick for what it is, just not made for drag racing of course.

Yeah no weight reduction or anything, alot of people were shocked me being one of them.

My first time ever driving a stick at a drag strip was that car and it went 13.3 @ 108 mph.

Actually it's not, it's verified by a moderator on the site via pm with timeslip. Those cars were stock. Why is it so hard to believe?

cause you can can send a picture of any timeslip you want and have it "verified" that way. for a 350z to run 13.1 would take nothing short of the stars to align, and to drop an ls1 in it.

The average trap speeds of the 370Zs vs. the average trap speeds of the 07-08 HR 350Zs shows the 370Z is averaging around 2-3MPH higher in the 1/4...its clearly a faster car. It won't be long before someone squeeks a high 12 out of a bone stock 370Z...their about identical in straight line performance to a stock LS1.
Nope. Exact specs. for weights for every different year the Z was made for clarification. All numbers were from the base model. Any other models were no more than 50lbs more in all model years since they pretty much added the same options.

03-05, all were the same in the interior. Weighing in at 3188.

06, 3339, revised engine producing 300 hp @ 7000 rpm, along with revised interior increasing the weight nearly 200 lbs. bixenon headlights, 18" wheels standard etc.

07, 3339, same as 06, standard bixenon headlights etc.

370Z 3374, now this is a huge misconception. The 370Z is the heaviest of all the Z's. Everyone expected it to weigh less that the 350Z because of claims etc. So then right before production Nissan had to add safety equipment adding weight.

Now some people are wondering if the quickest 03-05 went 13.5 @ xxx mph how is it possible the 07-08 went low 13's. Easy. Check this out.

http://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-d...r-numbers.html

That is a dyno showing that the 03-05 averages 230 whp on a dyno, the 06 averages 240 whp on a dyno, hr averages 260 whp, and the VHR(370) 280 whp. So there is a difference of 40 whp between the 03-07 Z's. Now add in some low DA's and some great Atco like track prep and I put money on it you could easily do 13.0's 13.1's all day long on stock treads.

Some of you on this board need to open up your minds. Just because you have a LS1 powered car doesn't mean you have to be ignorant (unknowing) to other cars, that's how the wrong information is spread. Now some people truly believe the Z's are 14 second cars. I drove mine stock to a 13.9 on shitty tires with a shitty 2.1 60' my first night out ever in RWD. So with more practice some better tires I'm willing to bet I could crank out a 1.9 60' and do 13.5's and that's with an 06.

Also our cars are not geared anything like the C5's or the LS1 Z28's. They are extremely long gears meant for the strip. Whereas our cars are made more for track racing and autox. Hence why we're in and out of the 1-4 gears so quickly. I give respect to the LS1's because I know firsthand what they can do. But I know a 06+ Z with some gears, a good driver, and some boltons will be able to hang with one pretty well.

Also whoever posted that **** up about a gen 4 ACR Viper going 10.90. Show me that slip asap. Last I checked the record time for any of them was a 11.50at Atco.
