illegal street racing in you V8 GT has what to do with V6 drivetrain performance????

And the "little paper silencer" is not a silencer.. it is a “Pre-Catalytic Converterâ€... it's there for emissions... Ford stopped putting them about mid-2005 IIRC...

Well, getting onto the freeway the other day from a red light... the maxima wanted to go so no harm no foul to get up to 70mph... We were pretty close but when I hit the freeway at around 72-74 mph I checked my six and he was about a car and a half away and pulling away. I thought it would be closer than that but I think it was just the guy driving (or maybe my tune) :P

Nice little cars.

Umm, the new Maximas are mid to high 14 second cars depending on if its an auto or manual, so I doubt he was trying that hard.
