Default s2000 VS 350Z

My friend has been hounding me to race him, hes been talking smack too. My friend previously owned a 85 Porsche that i raced also. Basically after 60 miles I would pass him and keep pulling on him.

so now he bought the Z and he feels fast. So finally we raced to get him off my back. Basically by 80 he would be about car and car and half. By 100+ he would be about 2 to 2.5 cars. My launches weren great at all, i feel i could have done a bit better. From a roll he would leave me after 3rd. His car would take off very noticeable after 3rd and 4th.

He was bragging this and that hes eating my ass this and that. so i told him "its ok, you got more hp and 2 more cylinders. 2 cars aint bad for this little 2 liter. But lets race again in 2 months or so, Im gonna blow you away with a capital V." So he was like " not fair" so i was like " oh you wanna talk fair? you got more hp and 2 more cylinders, ok whatever, just be ready"

anywayz, enough thats the end, all in good fun

well like I said his car really pulls like a motha after 3rd and 4th, either that or my car is week up top. we are somewhat even at take off but then he just passes me. and thats with a click noise in my rear, but im not using that as an excuse.

I still think a Z is ever slightly quicker than an S. However, in the handling and fun departments, NO CONTEST (meaning the S rules supreme)!

I raced a Z before but I didnt get a chance to go beyond 100miles/h due to the road condition. I was ahead of him by a half car length for the first 3 gears and I had a nice grin when we both stopped at the light.
