Default raced an altima? (2.5 nissan)

it was one of the new ones and they are 170 hp according the net...it was a short distance race and his car was def an auto..the nose of my car was at his passenger side door and i felt my car gaining up on it but we hit a light...gives me a rough idea where my car is at...i think my torque is what made me lose by a little bit...maybe next time

yeah at start and beginning he would have got ya, but as you guys keep going you should have killed him. Raced my friends nissan maxima 98 once. I thought i be killed, i didnt do bad at all, once we got to higher speeds, it couldnt pull away from me. Even from beginning he was maybe a half a car ahead of me.

From a dig you would be able to jump out on him. Good race though.

I had a good run in with a 2.5s... I believe it was manual.. or it was auto and he was sitting at the light in Neutral... but it was manual. Him and his girl, me and my girl... light turns green I just punch it to 50ish (speed limit was 40 so not too far off) and he didn't roll next to me at the next light. As far as I know he was trying to race me with his revving at the lights and such.. either way, I like my v6
