RaineMan vs Maxima SE

Okay... had such a laugh out of this one I gotta share.

On the way to work this morning... 'bout 9:00AM... had just finished picking on a riced out stratus sedan (supra-style whale tail, fart can, body kit, etc.). Rolled up to the light, both windows down, roof open. Beside me sits a silver Maxima SE... not the newest style... the 2000-2003 kind... 3.5L 255hp 6-speed. Wanna be gangster white guy in the drivers seat with his hat sideways jammin to what sounded like eminem blaring from the stock stereo.

Slightly annoyed, I cranked up my ZZTop so I could actually hear it over his crap. "Under Pressure" if anyone knows the song, hehehe. Apparently he took offense at this and decided to show me a thing-or-two about his Nissan.

Light turned green and I rolled into it like I normally do... trying my best to mind my own business. In the middle of the intersection I notice this guy is still beside me and look over. He must have taken this as a signal to go for it so he floored it. Not to be outdone by this poser in his stock sedan I laid on her from about 3000RPM in 1st. I lost traction immediately thanks to the horrible condition of the roads at every intersection in town. Slapped her into 2nd right at 7K and continued spinning. By this time we're doing 45-ish and are still neck and neck.

Well... 2nd finally caught traction somewhere around 50 and my red rocket tore away from the Nissan like he was sitting still. I put her in 3rd and stayed on it till I'd put about 5 cars on him. An easy win I know... but I got a grin out of it anyways.

Laterz...

3.5 6 speeds run a 14.1-14.4 pretty consistently....fairly decent drivers race, but i dont see you pulling 5 cars on him by 100 or whatever...good kill though.

people tell me the same about altima 3.5 se r's but i race one around my house all the time and i put anywhere from 2-5 car lengths on him each time. and im stock, raineman has stage 2 so i could easily see him doing that.

Yea, I've had no issues dusting off Altima SEs or SE-Rs. Maybe I'm running into bad drivers though?

Can I bash on you trying to steal my name instead?

Kidding... kidding... some of Eminem's stuff ain't too bad. I just don't go around blaring it as loud as I can on my stereo... that's a good way to get shot around here.
