Good times dude I think you should be able to get those 1/8th times down into the high 9's with your GSR w/ some practice. Just to let you guys know what some of the ZX2 guys are running:


60ft 2.181
330ft 6.404
ET@594ft 8.675
1/8th ET 9.349
1/8th MPH 66.77

w/ mods (only power mods listed):
JBA Header
Weapon-R intake
SS Shifter
Low temp thermo (I have yet to see proof that this actually helps anything... other then eat your gas mileage )
UDP

Original post (w/ slip):
http://forum.teamzx2.com/viewtopic.php?t=15433

I can't wait to run my Z at the drags come june (damn tranny & clutch!)

Here's a post of a guy who ran a low 15 in a lightly modded Z... From his array of times, he can't drive With those mods, other drivers are putting down high 14's.

I'm sure I can find more times if I really looked... but I'm hungry, gonna go get lunch

I think with practice you should be able to get those times down to the 9's stock. You SHOULD be running mid-15's or so on a stock GSR

sux i haven't been to a 1/4 mile track so my time judgment sux past 1/8th. I think that a 10 flat is the best i would get out my gsr if i ran it perfect. Thats seeing how my best time is like 10.4 with i/e. Heh mabey i could run a 9 and i just really suck? who knows.... im sure alt. and temp makes a big diference those runs where at a cold track so traction wasn't all there

Yeah, a lot of things play into a 1/4 mile run. I think a GSR should be at a 15.2~15.5 stock, no? Alt and temp/humidity play a big role too. And if you can't hook up traction, there goes your launch... You've also got to play with your shift points... find that "sweet spot" I know a lot of Z drivers find they run quicker 1/4 just winding 3rd out, and not bothering to shift into 4th. (3rd goes to roughly ~92mph b4 you hit the rev limiter). Just practice, and you'll get it...
