Default I got beat again

This time it was a 350Z, I didnt see him. He was in the far left and I was in the right with a big *** truck in the middle. Anyway he launches like a bat outta hell so I decide why not??? At about 60 he had 2 and 1/2 buslenths on me, then he shut down for traffic. We gave each other a thums up and I took my turn. It was fun

nice death. the Z's are nice. i love 'em. they sound sooo good.

and, dont u have a v6 ?? idk if its a New Edge or a S197 tho.....either way, 2.5 buslengths isnt that bad, considering he had AT LEAST 267hp....maybe 300.

Yeah I have a 6[:'(], thats what was cool I thought I hung well for a 6 up to 60ish. This one sounded bad, exhaust work prolly, cause it was louder than bothe of my friends Z's

Those 350Z's are really nice looking cars. I'd like to have one for a daily driver. They look good. Nice death btw.

no u dont. trust me. almost all the Z drivers say they wish it was just a weekend car. too stiff for a dd....but, i guess diff strokes for diff folks. depends how big of a boy you are too. so, if youre smaller, it might not be too bad...
