Default Just raced my friends Z and we're about even. Is that right?

We went to the end of third gear and i was 1/2 car in front. I started pulling on him even more at the end of my 3rd gear, then i missed the 4th gear shift. He thinks i would pull hard on him if i hit that 4th gear. we went from a 30mph roll in 2nd.

his car:
Track 350Z
CAI, Intake plenum, borla truedual, test pipes, b&m ss


For some reason i thought i would pull on him more

Default The 350Z is no means a run of the mill ricer...

most ricers have very little torque, but since the Z is a V6 is actually has decent torque...but yeah if you're stg 2+ I would have thought you'd have more on him...I also agree if you go to higher speed like 4th gear you would definately have the advantage...the S4 is mean <80mph...but >80mph the majority of cars can't keep up. I think mostly cuz at these higher speed the S4s weight doesn't play in so much.

btw - have fun out there...but be careful also...there are families on the roads...and you don't have to whack every ricers that comes along...you got nuttin to prove...you car's looks alone are enough
