Ran my co-workers 2013 v6 Altima
At first I thought he had a 4 cylinder, he got the jump while I had some wheel spin and then I reeled him in quickly and passed him. I was thinking to myself wow, I didnt really pass him as fast as i thought I was going to pass him, if he has a 4 cylinder then Im selling this car. lol.
I shut down at the top of 3rd near 90mph and he was probably a bus and a half length back maybe 2 buses. Then I found out he had the v6 and I looked it up, 270hp. Maybe I rematch him on my stock tune and see how it does? Although I know he knows the cobalt is quick but probably didnt think that it would be that bad so I dunno if hes going to rematch.

Hey hey I dont get into a lot of races at least really clean ones that count. This was a clean one, open road, no excuses, etc.
The last event I had that could of been a good race was fucked because the owner of the 07 350z was a complete douchebag and thought his **** was too good for anything. he rather weave in and out of traffic and do dangerous passes through traffic so I just watched him.
He came up to a 08 5 series beamer rolling on some aftermarket chrome and they both started driving like ******** through traffic I kept a good pace just waiting to see if a clear area comes up on the road but to no avail so I watched the dangerous driving for about 20 miles. Then they both came up on a 70's Pontiact tempest or some kind of muscley car, couldnt tell what it was, I was behind the beamer. All four at the redlight. The 350z floors his **** and pisses off the muscle car guy so before the 350z gets further than 30ft, the muscle floors past him with a rolling burn out lmao. the Beamer tried his best and being behind the beamer I floored it to see what it had. Nope. It had nothing, no challenge what so ever and again I drop back and trail until we come across some open road.
so next red light there is a line of traffic and I know im not going to have fun. The 350z driver starts talking to the beamer driver, light turns green and the beamer floors it at he lets the traffic get away from him. Poor 350z still stuck in some traffic I come up next to him and I decided maybe if I floor it I will get his interest? I ended up doing a rolling burn out right past him and I guess that pissed him off. He went back into engaging in weaving and bobbing and bobbed right around me with the most pissed off face ive ever seen. Now I could have been childish and sped up to no let him bob me but he would have definately killed the people in front of him.
When I say bobbing and weaving, I mean he is almost tagging bumpers in bumper to bumper traffic. No room for braking and no room for errors. I stopped keeping up as my turn was coming up and I could see him still trying to antagonize the muscle car up ahead. It made me smile cause it reminded me of 2 Fast 2 Furious lol, not just because it was ricer vs muscle but because he was black too and acting like a little bitch. I figured he was late 30s, early 40s and having a midlife crisis.

my god you really don't have a life outside of this forum, do you...I bought the silver grand prix with the intent to rice it to hell. I was called out saying it was worse than that white/blue one which I thought was absurd. The white g8 and truck are mine which have gauges and lights and other ricey things but I wouldn't really classify them as rice per say.

I havent been able to talk to him yet lol. It'll be a week since the run tomorrow. He just bought the car in December. Its a pretty car and I assume he bought it to have some speed since he got the v6 model instead of the 4 cylinder. But I dont think his intention is racing. It was a just for fun moment. He did get destroyed though so I dunno if he'll ever attempt racing it again
The specs for that car are 270hp ~3300Ib car with ~250 trq. maybe a good challenge for stock cobalt ss turbos
