Default ap1 vs g35

me 110 lbs in stock ap1. 80lbs passenger and about 70 lbs of junk in trunk.(not passenger, the actual trunk)

g35 sedan, stock, automatic, 20 inch chromes. 140 lbs driver and 105 passenger.

g35 is a friend of mine. on our way to another friend's house.
he following me from behind. we make a right turn onto an empty 2 lane road about 1 - 2 miles long.
i pull off to the left lane so he can have the right lane. im at about 4k in 1st asi wait for him to come up next to me. he jumps it from 1 car length behind me. i wait till hes about next to me before i get on it. i pull away from him easy. by 103 mph, im about 50 meters in front.

next road. door to door, were at about 45 mph. he guns it and i downshift from 6 to 3. were side by side but im sloooowly gaining on him. traffic up ahead so i end it. at the end of it i was barely ahead by a nose. my door was at his front fender.

first time i ran the S aginst his G. his dubs are heavy enough to make a noticeable difference.

next time it'll be aginst his gsr swapped eg hatch.

trying to set something up with my cousin and his 04 g35 coupe 6mt.

at 45 shouldn't you start in 2nd gear? I have raced g35 sedans and walked them by a few car lengths

45mph @ 2nd should put right around 6k, I doubt to can even reach 45 @ 1st.....also, a g35 sedan should be a piece of cake, considering it's an auto with 4 doors.

wow super lightweight ppl in the s2k O_O

stock for stock the s2k could pull the 6mt g35c's as well, so the auto sedan with 20 chromies and 2 passengers should have been cake. start at 2nd @ 45mph next time....BIG difference

i guess he's so passionate about racing that he did weight reduction on himself (and his girlfriend). either that or he can barely reach the pedals.

don't you guys keep up on the latest weight-saving mods for your s? I hear the Atkins mod works wonders...
