This guy wanted to get a baseline run after his mods (VTT stage 2 turbo, intake, catback, tune on 93). He couldn't find a stock GT to run so I volunteered since stock GT should be fairly even to me if not a bit slower. We met up and did a dig, 20 and 40mph in that order. Pulled a few lengths from a dig, he jumped out a car or 2 from 20 but had to let off. 40 was pretty good, his torque advantage put him out 1.5 lengths then I reeled him back and put slightly more than a car on him by 125ish. My car has some sort of computer strategy that it doesn't really like to go in 1st gear at 20, throttle closes back even in sport mode and TC Off.

Q50 faster than a stock mustang GT? I'd have to see to believe. I've been 12.36 @ 113 in a completely stock 16 GT auto. I think the bulk of the auto's would run 12.5-12.8 in decent weather.

Props on the times, those times are faster than 99% of the 15+ GTs out there and is actually on par with the validated 2015 + Bone stock on stock tires record, that was on -900 DA.

Not many people are aware of the Q50/Q60 RS400s. Not many runs out there at the tracks with them. The few that have ran are in the 12.6-12.9 range at ~112mph. My stock 2015 GT ran consistant 8.5-8.6 1/8 miles and 13.0 1/4 miles at 110mph in 1600-1800 DA. Thats an auto with 3.55s, premium with stock 255 pirellis.

stock down to the 235/18 all season Pirelli's, 3.15 gears. But it is comp orange. I think the GT record is a 12.34. If I had put my son in the car it should've run a 12.2xx as he is 100lbs lighter than me. Wasn't aware Infiniti had anything that ran in the 12's. I'll have to be on the look out.

Well everyone knows COs are faster. Lol

Yea they are rated at 400/350 but consistently put down 375/375 to the tire.
