This is my story... One day at a time
2023 Nissan Z, first officially timed laps at Streets of Willow (‼️NO MUSIC 🚫🎶‼️)
This is your only warning...
Watch and listen at your own discretion.... The microphone distortion is really bad could hurt your ears or damage speakers if played too loud.
Music plays during the intro but is muted once the driving begins.

2023 Nissan Z, first officially timed laps at Streets of Willow
Переглядів 2389 годин тому
All is quiet on a #newyearsday. Seriously, the car is too quiet but that's gonna change very soon. A couple laps from 2nd session behind the wheel of my 2023 Nissan Z at Round 7 of Nissan Challenge. Pardon the annoying crackling and popping coming from the external microphone, best I could do was overlay some music to mask the noise 🫤. Achieved a 1:22.748 in the 1st session but the GoPro did no...
Nissan 370Z at 2024 Z Nationals - Atlanta Motorsports Park

Had the pleasure of attending Z Nat's this year with a few of my fellow Nissan Challenge drivers from Southern California. First half of the day was rainy and damp, but this last session the track was finally drying up pretty well allowing me to stay on the power a lot more. Fastest lap of the day for me was a 1:32.7 and this was probably my only clean lap in that session, the rest I encountere...
Ian Stewart - Lucky Dog Enduro at WSIR May 5, 2023
Переглядів 1906 місяців тому
In memory of my friend Ian Stewart who passed away recently. Ian drove the wheels off his 240Z nicknamed "Thing 2" and always had a blast doing it. He had been lapping consistently in the 1:42s and I believe even hit a 1:41 that day, wouldn't be surprised if he got that lap while doing his best to hunt down John Morton in the flying Hawaiian Z ahead of us. I was fortunate enough to know him the...
R's Day x Nissan Challenge 5/26/2024 Hosted by NCRC Open Passing A - Session 2

New PB on Bridgestone RE71RS 1:39.8! No front splitter, new alignment and fresh tires. It's been a really long time since I've uploaded a track video mostly since this car was in an accident at the beginning of 2023. But the 370z is back on track. This was 3 of my fastest laps from R's Day in Session 2. Still time on the table, was getting acclimated to a new setup and new tires, I think a 1:38...

Nissan Challenge 2022 - Round 2 @ Chuckwalla CCW
Переглядів 3022 роки тому
First time running CCW. Best time was a 1:59.24, so close to dipping into the 1:58's. I had a lot of motivation in front of me, first that Supra and then one of my competitors in a 350z just ahead. This is an open passing run group, I watched the Supra's line through the bowl for several laps and observed that he liked to take a higher line and in my opinion, also a slower one. I found the gap ...
2022 Nissan Challenge - Hot Lap @ Big Willow

New PB 1:30.1, good enough for 2nd place in Class 2 of Nissan Challenge. A bit twitchy in T9 but perhaps adding some AOA to the rear wing will help with that.

New PB 1:23.8 and a class 2 win at Nissan Challenge. I put down this lap in session 4, 1st lap after the outlap in 80 temp. Wasn't it expecting the lap to have gone this well but I'm ecstatic it did

Way too loud music ruined a great video..
Next time i'll post one with the loud pops/crackles and dead air from my microphone just for you. Make sure you wear your headphones and turn the volume up to the max 😉
@@maizurieta1 Just trying to help the channel. Don't need a bunch of music or noise-the sound was great three times louder than optimum. Great footage etc... just the song ruined it. Good luck-as race track footage like this is too rare, so I think you have great opportunity. Car looks great etc..+ you lines were 1,000 times better than the rookie in front of you.
@@markr5132 I appreciate the support and thank you for the comments. Normally if I have music I usually bring the volume down to the point where it's just barely audible background noise, unfortunately in this case I thought it was better to raise the background noise to drown out the dismal sound. Time to start looking for a new external mic. I'd appreciate a like and a follow if you wanna help the channel, also feel free to check out some of my other track vids, you'll find some examples without music.
@@markr5132I just uploaded a version without music during the driving. Please check it out and if you like the video, drop me a like, subscribe and share the video with others who might also like it. Thanks
I don't like da police..cool video..make more..I'd like to hear just .engine .
@@canyoncliffracer uh that's U2 not the police lol The car is quiet ...and my microphone was making terrible noises

Way to go my brother
Did you do the nismo side skirts? i thought just having the nismo bumper only would drop the front end a bit in comparison to the body but it looks good. Did you install it?
@@iamchristianperez Thanks for the compliments! Only did the front so far but yeah I did the install myself with a bit of help from a friend.
Wait it’s manual?
Nvm
@@tobyxiong585 lol yeah it's manual. Just did the Nismo front end
Flying!
Does anyone know what year Ian was born? He was a terrific guy and would love to have that info, thanks.
R.I.P. Ian. Great guy with a lot of passion.
The Thing2 is just an extension of Ian here!
Promo SM 😄
You gonna be there Nov 25?
Where did you get your front canards from??
So awesome!
Love your motivation, drive, and execution of your goals.
I feel the spirit of your build is similar to my own. But I'm still flopping around in oem seats, AC, and not gutted Still running stock gearing or is that 3.91? Did you upgrade your LSD? I'm starting to research aero as I'm reaching the limits of OEM suspension. Dive planes with front splitter and hood vents is the most effective. Dive planes on their own don't work well. But adding that front splitter helps a lot. And then being able to move air through the hood vents is great at reducing lift and improving temps. My oil temps with a 72 row sky rocket when I'm running to 8k rpm. I am trying to solve that issue before chucking more power lol. I run on the east coast (Sebring is my home track). The next big solve is a diffuser for my Nismo V1 bumper. At least something so it's not a parachute or cut half way up (Its ugly). With Finite Element Design closing up shop, I've been on a witchhunt looking for diveplanes for the Nismo. If you know a place or you know someone who can scan your set, I'd be interested.
Nice driving!! Question, where would I be able to see all of your mods? I currently own a Nismo 370z and want to start tracking, taking inspiration from your build. Thanks
What are the spring rate or toe and camber
Spring rates and camber are relatively conservative. 16k/14k and -3.6 front camber, -2.4 rear camber
Thank you so much . I only see sunpro.co use 16k spring and was not sure about the set up but with your confirmation it just better .
What clutch master cylinder are you running?
OEM clutch master, but did the ZSpeed CMAK CSC delete
Nice pace looks so much fun.
nice lap malko!
Thanks Phrankie!
What mods does your car have; exhaust obviously but what suspension and tires? Great lap time!
Front splitter, rear wing, coilovers, clutch type differential, upgraded front sway bar. Newly installed OS Giken clutch/flywheel running on Nankang AR1 with 4 track days on them. No power mods other than cold air intakes. Thank you for the compliment and for watching my video!
@@maizurieta1 I had just put AR-1s on my track car and then sold the car. I'll be watching to see how they work for you. Thanks for the info.
What phone mount is that?
ram mount X-grip
Fuck yeah bro. This video gave me the chills, I found your channel through the Z forums. Keep killing it out there, hope to see you at the track one day. Keep on pushing!
Thanks man, I'm planning on heading up to Laguna at the end of July, so maybe i'll see ya there :)
Awesome win!
Sankyu sankyu!
I love the 360 spin you did at 1:07! May I ask what you had done to this thing? Awesome lap times
Thanks man. To this day still have no idea why that s2k spun lol. At the time of this video basic bolt on mods: CAI, test pipes, single exit exhaust, coilovers, camber arms, sway bar, Winmax W5/W4 brake pads, Cusco diff, Nexen SUR4G tires and a basic tune by Uprev.
@@maizurieta1 "To this day still have no idea why that s2k spun lol. " Haha no no, i meant YOUR spin. Watch your gps at the top corner up at the 1:07~ mark. " At the time of this video basic bolt on mods: CAI, test pipes, single exit exhaust, coilovers, camber arms, sway bar, Winmax W5/W4 brake pads, Cusco diff, Nexen SUR4G tires and a basic tune by Uprev." So fairly basic stuff with some decent summer timers. Very impressive results! Thank you so much :)
@@SidewaysGts Lol i never noticed that on the map before. Thanks for pointing that out, I gotta good laugh out of it. Yeah fairly basic stuff, no real secret sauce other than seat time and a lot of time spent fine tuning the suspension
nice!
s2k going out was nuts! beautiful driving
Thank you! Hoping to drop more time there at the end of the month
Wow. Amazing video & story. God Bless man!
The FCK that s2k doing? lol. let me just clutch kick and see whats off to the right side of the track...
I was confused too. He was pretty fast although I don't think he had a transponder
Hell yeah man!
Bringing the heat! Thanks for the fun! 🤙
Great driving bud, looking forward to the next time we meet 🤘
Bye falicia 😂
No sound?
The mic got disconnected 😕
Lol the flying cone at 0.59 got me good
I thought for a second I was watching Doherty going on a cone killing spree.
Why’s is Doherty’s car so damn loud lol
Because Audi 5 cylinder?
So rad man!! We gotta link up!!
Let’s talk about your story ASAP.. hit us up
Sounds good, sent you an email
I love you cuzin thank you for everything 🗣🗣💯
Thank you for sharing your story and your journey.
The hill @ 1:10 gave me anxiety lol
You and me both lol
Finally someone to watch that actually races an attainable car and RECORDS it for us.
Thanks my man! Glad to know there's an audience for this. It's a bit more difficult for time attackers and road racers to stand out in a sea of street racers, drifter and drag builds. Hopefully that'll change over time though
Awesome driving!
Thanks! I was not expecting my first time out in this particular car to have gone so well
maizurieta1 What tires did you use? I'm wondering if the Bridgestone Potenza's that originally came with the the Z are pretty good for the track
sharpemang I ran Hankook RS3's with 3 or 4 track days on them. S04's, RE050's or RE760's might do ok. I did a 1:30 running SOW CW in a 7AT 370Z on Bridgestone RE11's back in 2015.
How have I not subbed to your channel Malko? lol
lol likewise...I was like Kevin must have a channel...oh look he does, wtf is wrong with me 🤣
We must like gold too. lol Looked fast out there!
That's a sweet lap bro!
Great stuff man!
2:17 I think you had a brain toot, somehow ran 5 seconds faster than you did :)
steven barker yup, should be 1:57.147. I did put the correct time in the description though
Fun stuff!
lol oh man
Getting used to the 6mt? Faster?
I learned a lot in that one track day, but there's still more to go. The 6MT has more grunt than the 7AT but the auto makes up for it with those quick shifts and the focus the driver can maintain on steering, braking and throttle input. I was faster by a tenth of a second than my best time in the auto, at the same track and in similar conditions and on the same tires. So that should give you a good idea of what both cars are capable of.
