96 Maxima 5speed v.s. older 5.
how can sho beat me? The fastest ones(94-95) run 15.0-15.4. I ran a 14.8 stock. Iknow they're quick cars but Maxima's are just that much faster.
PS I'll run your stang anytime anywhere you want
Jeep: why because I'm faster than you?

You ran a 14.8 stock and you added a K&N and a Y-pipe and you're pulling a 5.0 by 6 cars??? I'm gonna have to call BS on this one. Most 5.0's run mid 14's stock, so to be pulling him by 6 cars, you would have be at least a low/mid 13 second car. Not possible with a K&N and Y-pipe. You don't have the torque for that. No way you pulled your friend's 5.0 in 2nd gear. Either you're full of it or your friend REALLY sucks at driving. Granted, the newer model Maxima's are pretty quick (240 hp or something like that), but they're not THAT quick. Race someone who knows how to drive.

I agree with you on that one. My friend can not drive very well. He's been driving for a couple months but I've seen the way he drives. I was with him when we lost to a Mercedez AMG. He tried to downshift to 1st while rolling at 20mph?!? I was like, what are you doing, shift to 2nd not 1st. But thats not why we lost anyway, those AMGs are SICK *** CARS!
Anyway, his car feels much slower than mine. I've driven his car and yes it does have the grunt 'off the line' but then it just feels slow for some reason. That explains why he had me off the line when we raced. no bs

This may be the stupidest argument ever!!!! (and ive had some bad ones in here) Guys you all need to calm down youre shouting about a MAXIMA!!!! Just because there was a maxima in the FAST AND FURIOUS now everyone that owns one thinks they have a race car.

^Word.
Stock times mean jack. There's different restriction amounts on different cars.
The reason I don't give a flying rats ***: I absolutely hate Jap cars. A Maxima, faster than a domestic.....damn, that's funny.

No reason to hate Japanese cars...I think there's a couple turbo'd Corollas around that *might* give you a run for your money...at least in auto-x.. :P
However, since I don't own a 'stang (yet), I suppose my opinion is invalid.
