Lol, in highschool with an s4?

Nice kill, those 350's are a little over rated. There is always heated debates about those and the older model m3's on the bimmer forums.. Glad you were able to put another Z owner in his place.

I can imagine. I raced a few when I had my Z, and honestly never had a problem w/ them. But there are some $h!tty driver's out there.....[8D]

Yeah and that's the thing, on the bimmer forums they say the same thing. Even the stock 90ish m3's..how they never lost to a Z..

It's quite irritating as it's always the pre 2000 m3 guys who are d*cks about 350's, G35's , is300's and EVO's.

I just raced a 350z as well, had a nice looking body kit, dark tint, nice black, a few stickers, had exhaust and sounded like intake too, we started going for an onramp lane and he was ahead when he got on it, i got on it and passed him pretty easily, was pretty funny, i dont think he took it as well as your guy though

That's funny. There was a kid around here that had a stock '93 Coupe 5-speed. The day he got that car, he was talking smack about how he'd trash my Z. We went out on the highway for a few runs, and only got one in where he didn't miss a gear, lol. From a 40-120 roll, I put abus-length and some change on the guy. He said it was because I had 1/4 tank of gas vs his 3/4 tank. Go figure........I say his flux-capacitor didn't kick in, lol.[8D]

those thing can be fast but they need to have a good driver and so far ive only seen one with a good driver, they should be able to keep up but the guy i went at, well lets just say he kept up but he got the jump and still ended up in my rearview oh well

That reminds me, a couple days ago I raced a newer 350z. Long story short - thrashed the guy to the next red light, when the light turned green he rolled his window down, honks, and flips me off....then turns right and drives off.....lame!
