now we have flying balloonz. :icon17:

I give up. The blip throttle response.

I almost had the dealer install the blimp mode option on my Z, but i just couldn't justify the $13,000,000 increase in sales price.

Standing 1/4 will be a drivers race. You'll have the advantage on a road course due to his heavy V8 sitting in front of the front axle (persistent Audi design flaw).

You should tell him this before you guys take off, then he'll screw up his launch for sure haha

I see you're just gonna keep on going with this.

Uh Oh, you are going to get slapped like a b****. Make sure to take some tissue with you :icon17: Honestly speaking Cunnos, I personally don't see the point of those futile races, you got a fast & nice car, the other party has got a fast(er)/pricier car ... so what...more power to him. 10 seconds later, not much would have changed in your life because you won or lost a lousy race. Good luck if you take on the challenge.

If you had a 7AT you'd win :stirthepot:

/\ Sooooo, trying not to post a F&F quote right now.... :rofl2:

When does the fall session for kindergarten start in Massachusetts? This thread reads like a couple of spoiled brats with way too much time on their hands. :facepalm:

:rofl2: I knew someone would have caught that up.
Oh well...
F&F Dom: "You almost had me? You never had me - you never had your car... Granny shiftin' not double clutchin' like you should. You're lucky that hundred shot of NOS didn't blow the welds on the intake! You almost had me?"

Who is it going to be? The S5 or the Z :stirthepot:

it is a pissing contest you know. boyz do this when young. :tup:

Quite fun when you're young. Now I just go Auto-X and Track, only to realize...YOU OR THE OTHER DRIVERS "WILL" **** UP YOUR CAR. :ugh2:

This is why a lot of Auto-X and Track cars are like beaters cars (like '1980s Honda Civics and 300zx). Honestly, just grab a Honda Civic or Mazda MX-5, practice around the race track, and murder him on the course.

I actually want a Miata track toy pretty badly. I don't want to rough up my Z on a race track.

Audi S5 vs Nissan 370Z - FastestLaps.com

The S5's torque keeps it in the race but the Z will prevail!

I'm 23, a bit on the younger side in the 370z world for sure. I've always paid for my cars on my own, which is why it's so fun to make the spoiled kids feel stupid. Usually the kids who brag about the used Audi that their parents gave them are the same posers who need to Google how much horsepower "their" car has.

i'd take an s5 over my 370z all day everyday and twice on sunday. however, i don't think s5 is better than the Z on performance. drag race is probably a wash, but z will out handle the pig on a road course.

There ya go.

phsssh, I live my life one meal at a time, for those 5 minutes or less when I'm eating, I'm free. :icon23:

Hey dudes just got caught up on this thread. Thanks for all the info, advice, insults, commentary, etc etc i love it! Gurneyeagle ur comment makes you sound like a very misinformed person. Read the beginning of the the thread and perhaps you will comprehend my dilemma and the "tom-foolery" here on the370z.com Choose your words and comments more carefully and leave us spoiled brats alone hahaaaaaa, cant believe that ishhhhhhh......

This is good stuff thanks man! Surprisingly the Z holds up very well

thanks for giving me the heads up, but i dont think i will get slapped the way u describe. If you met this kid you would understand where im coming from, i never do any racing with my Z and typically dont get into this stuff. But this is different, this kid is a little spoiled d*ck who's father bought him a car, never worked a day in his life. Now he is running his mouth, so i wanted to find out what would happen if i accepted his challenge. Thanks for the response though

Careful, sometimes it is better to walk away a bigger man because he could always come back with a Ferrari or whatever.

Remember...in a penis war, someone always come back for round 2.

if you do race him, PLEASE GET AN OIL COOLER like others mentioned. dont put your car and your pride at risk. it would be worse if you cant even finish the race lol.
good luck!

and remember! just because someone is running their month, it doesnt mean you have to prove them wrong. your life doesnt revolve around them. its never worth it if you got something dear to your heart at risk it wouldnt kill you to just walk away.

best of luck to you nevertheless =]

I've dealt with that type of individual before. When you do win the race, he will find an excuse to justify the loss or find something else to come at you with. You know the value of your car you worked hard to get on your own so you probably wouldn't go all the way in a race; the other party doesn't care if anything breaks or if he breaks something since daddyooh would give him another S5.

Best way to shut him up for good dude, see below; he'll never ever again mess with you ;)


"Aw, hell no. you really went and scraped the bottom of the barrel here ... Guess you did, considering your a$$ is here. When are you gonna give Martin Luther King his car back?" - edited quote :icon18:

I think it is unfair to compare our Z with the S5,our is an V6 while the Audi is an V8,both also under not the same class of cars,i think we should compare our Z with the Lotus Evora....

Porsche Cayman

Wow Sparky - you really put me in my place with that comeback.

Dilemma? That comment alone proved my point. Please continue to do so, it's quite amusing.

When you do respond, remember this - paragraphs can be your friend. A Spellcheck wouldn't hurt either.

Carry on young Jedi.

I only got in about 1.5 hard laps at Miller Motorsports Park (about 3 minutes) before limp mode kicked in, then ran the other 17 minutes of the 20 minute session slowly. It wasn't even very hot out - low 70s. 4500 ft altitude and dry though.

If you hit limp mode, he should be able to handily trash you unless there's a huge difference in driver skill in your favor. So get an oil cooler.

phsssh, he's dead, he doesn't need it anymore...:ughdance:

pshhh you've heard of ghost rider ... ;)
