Well, when you slip and slide around a corner and have to let off the throttle, or don't take the apex tightly, like this guy did, you lose precious time

Well that was fvcking embarassing
 The Z exited the final lap long after after everyone else had already parked their cars and moved on to enjoy some post race sake to celebrate their awesomeness

i agree with you on that. yeah they're awd turbo, yeah they were 'factory' tuned as mentioned before but if you think about it...helloooo the NISMO is a factory tuned 370z lol, can't use that excuse.
idk, it was just kind of disappointing, even if some of it was driver error. it still couldn't have been that much, i mean they're all professional drivers, not like they've never driven a rwd before. idk, just seems like the z just isn't that great on the track |

All i think is that the Z is just a fat lady on the road w/ a lots of ponies under the hood. I dont know about you guys but Z does suck at track competition
 , But where other cars fail Z shale succeed and it is perfect for drifting and that's why i brought mine. Check your cars history fellas then buy.

Actually, if you want to bring up the cars history, that would embarrass this car even more. take for instance, the original datsun 240z. that was top dog, it was blowing everything out of the water at its time, especially for the price!
then fast forward a couple years and take the 300zx for example. Steve millen dominated in that beast. ^^those are only 2 examples of many. so to be honest, i do know the cars history, and now after that, it just seemed to show even more it's kind of a let down (in comparison of course) |
