Default got owned by a 350z..

i was going down the 210 at 4 a.m... heading eastbound home... when a 350z blows right past me at speeds 100+.. he spotted me.. i was only doing around 75ish.. and he steps on his brakes.. and waits for me... i saw him brake.. so i start downshiftin to 5th.. to 4th.. and just cruise in 4th.. i pull next to him.. and down to 3rd.. and i go... he follows right behind me.. it was "semi" raining.. so i didnt wanna try so hard.. i went and pulled on him by at least 2 cars.. at speeds about 120-130.. so i slow down.. and he blows right past me.. he was using the carpool.. i had to slow down cause the lanes were gettin taken up..

when this happened.. he turned on his hazards.. i had to pass the cars.. when i got behind him.. i high beamed him.. and i down shift to 4th.. and into 3rd.. and i start going again.. this time.. he was leading the race.. and for some reason.. no matter what i did.. i couldnt catch up to him.. we went to speeds up to 140+ but i was still behind him by at least a car and a half.. we both slow down.. and do it again.. he turns on his hazards.. we were cruisin about 65.. and i down shift to 3rd.. and again.. i was chasing him.. and couldnt keep up.. i was sad at this point the Z must of thought that i had a slow ass car... dont know why this happened.. but i guess he wasnt ready the first time i downshifted to 3rd.. but the 2 times after that.. we both went 140+ and i still couldnt keep up.. bad day for the S

i guess the 04 isnt as fast on top end as the 00-03's.. the Z looked completely stock.. no mods.. no exhaust.. except the only thing was that it was the 350z convertible.. and no plates.. brand new car.. so i'm pretty sure it was a stock vs stock race..

maybe you had the top down?
maybe the Z has a better top end than a stock s2k?
could be both
all in all, nice death! with a few mods, you may have caught up

UGLY DEATH convertible 350z, that's a damn shame. There's a considerable difference between the coupe and vert. The vert is a PIG'S ASS, . UGLY DEATH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'll kill that thing in an S2000. I'll burn rubber on that all day.

I would say problem was the driver, not everyone is as good of a driver as they think they are.

Sorry but sometimes the truth hurts.
