G35's are scary fast but hopefully someone in the Ft.lauderdale area will run anyway.

Then you say:

Funny, cause my experience with 350z's they all ended up seeing my tailights...even when we took it up to 145! I guess your just the world's most "special" driver...
I'm not anything speacial.. but the ones you raced were special ed

I can't speak on behalf of th G35..but if it's anything like the Z it will walk an S2K on th highway all day long.... like 9k said it will be very close down low
Hahahaha...

That's what the last 3 350z's that I ran into thought... then they had this look on their faces

G can not be underestimated for sure...
with Z, you better get your game face on...or helmet.

i do want to point out that with G/Z, you may get that additional sensetion of acceleration with the great low end torque, which perhaps make you feel like or make you imagine that you're going even faster...
what you feel inside vs. what's happening outside are different matter...

i think all and all, it's driver's race.

it's funny how there's alot of s2k guys that have never lost to Z's and alot of Z guys that have never lost to S2K's.... The cars are very close in performance and I'd drive either one any day I'ma quit arguing which is faster, cause they are both pimp (and I already know which ones faster LOL )

Both cars are very respectable and have their reason for being driven. The reason not being the same between the cars.

Interesting... so do I... I am the proud owner of a 2004 Base model 350z 6spd. I was just trying to say that underestimating the S2000 is very bad for the 350z and vice versa... I still havent encountered a S2000 in my 350z, but will run one the first chance I get and post results... I'm very dissapointed with 350z owners in Chicago. They suck.

P.S. Weren't you the guy who launches his 350z at 1,500 rpms?
haha.. it's shirinking I said 2-2.5 if I drop it...otherwise a 3k slip was about right... but thats cause I have a base with shitty 17" 235 potenza's.. With my new BFG's a nice 4-5k slip is perfect

so by you saying "so do I" which one do you think is faster..? just curious..?? Cause honestly if you own both and don't think the Z has a little more up top you are crazy

"^ I try to launch my Z closer to 2k than 3.5....... haven't ran into an s2k yet, but I'm pretty sure I'll pull them up top"
