Default 350Z encounter

A few days ago, I was at stoplight listening to a new cd I had made. I looked at the rear view and saw this silver 350 coming REALLY fast. He came to a stop and revved for about 4 seconds.... I ignored him.. He revved again, I look over; he waves and asked if I wanted to run.

Light turned green... I launched at 5k with minimal bogging, put about 1 car by the end of 1st gear and he never caught up. He was peeling out way too much.

We came to the next light.... The guy wanted more, he was reving again. so I was like why not? I decided to give him another chance

2nd run was even worst, I put about 1 1/2 to 2 cars by the end of 3rd. Iwas on the right lane and he was on the left. I was trying to mergeonto the freeway and a cop pulls outta nowhere onto my lane. I thought i was in deep shit when the cop suddenly switched lanes and pulls over the 350Z. I merged onto the freeway and the cop was waving the 350z down. Poor guy.

We've got the advantage down low due to our gearing...they seem to have the advantage at highway speeds (80+) in the 6MT trim.

Not every car has a competent driver in it. Drivers = huge factor.

Sucks for his being pulled over.

Do you think he pulled the 350 over because you were already too far ahead?

I thought I was in deep shit when I saw the cop pull out. I believe I lucked out because I was ahead of him. As for the race, he spun out way too much... From the hole, I gain about 1 car and some; he never had a chance. But it is truely a drivers race. I had a feeling that he would spin out like that since he seemed to be very agressive.
