Are U on this forum? NIght of Del Mar Import Showoff, I-5, beginning of this year.

I was messin with you, then we finally got a clean start together, we were right up on each other until about 120, I started pulling away ever so slightly.

U were a white one, looked stock . . .

Didnt hear my blow off valve huh?

Nice, but you know what? You're still stuck in an Altima.

Race another one and see what happens. Maybe that guy sucked or didn't want to go faster.

What are your times?

Hey, nothing against u guys, but i can carry a bunch of friends with me to go hunt for S2000s.

Anyhow, the car runs 13s.

Just wanted to know if the guy was here. He was real cool about the race, we had some traffic to go thru, and we kinda just followed one another until we found wide open spot. We were on I-5 on the straight before the nuke plant, no cars whatsoever.

Not trying? I heard him downshift once, then he kicked down another!! The sound was so awesome, i missed a heartbeat when i heard the downshifts, he was right next to my car.

Whoever he was, i admired his driving, real safe driver, we kinda went to the sides of the freeway, 2 lanes apart and i felt real good about running him.

Had fun running against a real sports car!!

Dude-

Even if your car ran in the 13's your top speed is nowhere near 120. Maybe, 120 Max and no more. You're certainly not trusting your Speedo for the speed are you?? It's nice to see your admiration for our cars but how do you compare an Altima which is a compact economy sedan with a sports car?? I don't get how people pull up in these Grandma and Grandpa cars and expect to race.

Silver, he put a turbo in that puppy. If he's running 13s, he can hang.

But that's about it. Nice race.

Silver, relax, I agree with you to a point, but if the Altima is pulling 13's (high or low?, I'm assuming high) he would be right there with a stock S. This is why cthree was worried about putting a kills forum. Take his comments for what they are worth, the guy just wants to know if the S owner is on the board.

Okay, you guys are right....I did get a little stir crazy there. True enough, if he is in the 13's he can certainly hang with us until we get into any kind of twisties in which even some Ferrari's would have trouble passing us.

Sorry, for getting all worked up, I hadn't had my coffee for the day and now that I have I'm cool again. No hard feelings......okay, let's carry on
