350Z vs ss/tc

So here's my story, i just dropped my friend off at home and was out for 1 last cruise really late at night already nobody on the road when i came across this black 350Z tinted no idea if stock or not but i got up beside him and we did a roll from approx 40MPH, i dropped the pedal in 2nd and noliftshifted to 3rd, by this point i was 2+ car lengths ahead, i slowed down and we did it again, same thing, 2+ lengths pretty much instantly, i slowed down a 3rd time and let him get a jump on me, lol i still pulled 2+ lengths.

The End.

congrats dude.

but really is it necessary to say you "no lift shifted"? it just sounds really stupid in a story like this and to be honest isn't that great of a feature to be bragging about. people do it all the time. sorry, just had to get that off my chest dude.

p.s. I love the TC. keep up the good work and stay safe out there.

Well under that logic...

If the Cobalt had an LS3 under the hood it'd be different.

Exactly!!!

From a roll, the SS/TC would probably beat or run right with a newer (07-08) Z. I know the 07-08's are mid 13 second cars with a decent driver, but from a roll, the SS/TC is pretty deadly aswell. Nice kill OP.

funny how this is coming from a ss/tc owner

I think you re mistaken though, newer Z are trapping near 105-107mph way more than a TC balt so a roll race may still favor the Z
