Default Restless nights of Racing

Got a good bit of racing in on friday.. decided to keep my car at home and just ride along with my buddy in his Speed3.

Was hoping to get some opinions on the white 350Z that my buddy raced..

Talked to the owner of the Z and he said it wasnt an HR Z, and just had bolt ons with a "Tune that is set for higher rpm".

I was suprised at how fast it was... being as it wasnt a HR motor. Do any of you guys have experience with Z's? Im thinking the Z owner wasnt up front about all his mods, but I could be wrong.

Hope you guys enjoy the vid!

350Z is not being truthful by a long shot.

Had to have been spraying a 75 or so. Those cars are just way to slow to do that, especially since bolt-ons and tuning don't really do jack for them.

Nice, your videos look good. What do you use to blur out faces and plates?

Yeah, Im sure it was something like that. Guy had a D-Bag attitude so I'm sure he wasnt being honest.

Here are the thoughts of a curmudgeon:

If you (Bokeo) deck out the suspension on your coyote car, bolt on some 15" QTPs, and head back out to that spot with the same group of cars, you'll desecrate all of them.
