Samurai446 Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 Well its not really that urgent, but it got your attention Ive been set up in a race soon against a Nissan 350Z. It'll be my first real race since i got the car. Any tips anyone can give me? Also does anyone know what the result will be? Do i stand a chance? I was under the impression that a 350 was about 250bhp, but this guy is bragging saying that supes are all old crappy cars and that his 350 (which he borrows from work) is 350bhp and is capable of 197mph????? Any enlightenment on this would be much appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Class One Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 As far as i am aware the 350z is 276bhp and limited to 155mph. 0-60 in 5.9secs. Hope you're not racing on public roads are you? There's a thread in the spirited driving chronicles that might help!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barry Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 What mods do you have (if any)? I've been up against a couple of 350Z's, wasted both of them without any trouble what so ever. Second gear, pulled straight past as we came off a roundabout, I know he was giving it full beans too as I had the window down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai446 Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 Thats what i was thinking, he's obviously gonna be quite surprised when he loses. And if all goes to plan it wont be on a public road, no. It's a bit dangerous for my likings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai446 Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 Yeah, mines a TT, its got a blitz exhaust cat back, hks racing suction kit and de-restricted. The one he is driving is outta the showroom. He works for the showroom, and the staff are allowed to take home the cars occasionally.

penguin Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 you'll dust him.... get yourself a tow rope and offer him a ride........ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Samurai446 Posted April 4, 2005 Author Share Posted April 4, 2005 you'll dust him.... get yourself a tow rope and offer him a ride........ Ill remember that one. Only thing im worrying about is if he gets traction off of the line and i spin up. The 350's got all the hi-tech traction control stuff.

geoffvalenti Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 The one he is driving is outta the showroom. He works for the showroom, and the staff are allowed to take home the cars occasionally.

Rich Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 just make sure you get a good launch off the line-get some practice in and find out what the best revs are for good launch. you should wipe him out with a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted April 4, 2005 Share Posted April 4, 2005 My stock (apart from front cat removed) auto TT got a 4.99 second 0-60 at Bruntingthorpe the other day. You'll murder him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
