i thought the new STI's were faster than that? I always thought new WRX STi >05 and up GT> 350Z
Depends on the race and the driver. STi's have a big advantage from a dig. GT and 350Z have the edgeif the race is long enough or from a roll. '05-up GT and 350Z is driver's race, w/ slight edge to the GT, from what I hear. Haven't raced one yet personally. I tried to get one to run me last weekend, but he wouldn't. I don't really care if I lose, I just wanna see haow they stack up.[&:]

Yeah, there's a ton of Evo's and Sti's running around here. Just in our car group, there are 6 STi's and 5 Evo's. Most are near stock, and it seems top end runs are their weak spots. That one guy WRXtransformed (I think) has a badass STi. I don't know if he'd agree on their mediocre(IMO) top end runs, though. They are killer from a dig, though. But judging from cars I've owned and raced, the 350Z seems to pull pretty well up top. At 100, my car still has plenty of steam.I think all VQ series cars are like that, though. I rode in old friends G35 that seemed the same way.
race an ls1 from a roll-that would be interesting!
Considering the horsepower difference it might be close for a short time.. but I don't think it would be pretty past 100mph...

I know better than to start fights w/ LS1 cars. I've owned one before. I'll race one, but I don't go looking for them. Not until I have my supercharger, anyways.

I highway raced some kid in a 350Z from 60 - 100. I wiped the floor with him. When he caught up, he gave me the thumbs down. I proceeded to put a bunch of cars on him again. Then again, my car is not stock.
