After getting beat by a couple but hairs 3 weeks back by the new z I had a new encounter yesterday on PCH. It was on the long stretch between laguna and corona del mar. I was trying to catch up with a red srt-10 when I noticed a car flying up behing me and I hear some loud blow off valve. It's a new Nissan 350z with a turbo (or turbos). Normally I would have never even raced this 350z, since they are worlds apart from the Viper, but this guy came from 5 miles back and made sure I heard his turbos so I know the car was modded way over a stock 350z We get a red light with a long straight in front of me. Long story short it wasnt close. Next red light we line up again and I wait for him to look over so I can find out what he had. He wouldnt look at me, just straight. This time I let him jump me off the line on purpose. Still walked past him. I dont think that this was a great victory by any stretch. I would assume the most the car would be putting down on a stock block would be 420 to the wheels. After the 2nd race he still wouldnt look over so I dont know what he had done to the car. I just put in a new shifter and it feels so much better than stock, and all it is, the mgw handle. I'm hoping I can catch up with that Z06 again from a couple weeks back. Much quicker shifting with just a new knob. I tried to look on the 350z boards but no one posted. Again, not really a fair race but fun none the less. Thought I'd share my fun.
