Thanks everyone.... 
I would love to to run at some of the nice tracks with better air and lower DA. I am seriously thinking about it, but I would like to find a track that is a lot closer than Texas. not sure yet, but will probably be looking for one and probably plan on going next week... we will see
I dont know about impressive. but I guess its not too bad. I know I can do better especially knowing that I ran 2 1.7X 60ft in that same day....

Thought the driving looked good just need more seat time on the launch. Don't change shifting, work on the 60'.I have a house in conifer but never raced out there. At least you can enjoy 'gods country' after a day at the drag strip.
Rangers methods are for stock clutch and stock powered cars.

Keep the burnouts short.
Pump the clutch as you go up to the line.
One pass every 25 minutes.
You are dumping clutch too much . Try and ride out a little more and get on the gas a bit sooner. Your car bogged down badly.That will get you in the 1.6x's.
What is your tire pressure?

and Yes you are right, I do indeed dump the clutch faster than what I think. it doesnt feel that way in the car but looking at my vids, I do! the inside vid is of my worst run that day. and yes it bogged. I will try to work on that a little more.
I set my pressure at 17psi. launch RPM is from 5000-5700 I keep trying different things.
As you figure things out more you need to come up with a standard launch technique that you start with every time. Then on the following passes you can adjust for track conditions, weather, etc. You need to time your burnouts and extend time time between runs. If you keep everything consistent then you will only have to make small changes to account for different days.
You're on the right track.
You're on the right track.

as soon as I get my 10sec slip N/A which I hope will be very soon. car is only tuned at 125shot though. should be fun!!
yes they are open but there schedule sucks. I would love to go but they always have something going on and I dont think you can just go and run the elevation there is like 3500ft which is not bad at all compared to Bandimere (5800) and PMI (4900). and they are not too far too....

at the track it always worked great for me. on the streets?? not that great (sometimes it acts weird, but 85% of the time its normal on the streets). and if I can go back in time, I will not get it mostly due the price of one of those things and installation. but yes over all its great. clutch is happy but I am not j/k

LOL!!! Good luck next time out!
When did you dyno your car, last I heard (about two months ago) they were working on custom manifolds for the Maxima (they decided not to use the stock ones).... I wish I was making this up.

Just ran a 10.9 at PMI. Did 2 runs. First was 11.0@128 with a 1.73 60ft and the 2nd was 10.9@127 with a 1.76 60ft. I just broke my main belt and I live about 4 hours away!!! GREAT.
