Default 99 Z28 vs 350Z

alright this happened around 2 AM on a saturday, as i pulled away from the local whataburger i see some HID headlights in my rear view. i see its a 350Z and i joking said to my buddies in the car "I betcha if this light turns red hes gonna pull up next to me and rev his motor and wants to race" friends say your stupid, sure enough he revs up and i dont do a thing i'm just trying to drive like a normal driver so i just sit there waiting for it to turn green. finally i said screw it and decided to race but i still dont rev up, light turns green i he takes off and stomps on it i take off as well but my car has been giving me problems lately by the engine hesitating, backfiring and bogging down but i managed to keep up with him until my car decides to function properly and i completely stomp him in the ground, next light i'm waiting i see its a convertible and he has no passenger while i have 2 passengers in mine. so i rev up the motor at him and he cowers away by turning his car into the left turn only lane, he gets the green arrow turns left stomps on it his tires spin gets really sideways and eats the curb with the rear passenger tire and then ends up pulling into the gas station by the curb to check his stupidity. we couldnt help but just straight up laugh at him lol my light turned green i casually pulled away to reach my destination but unfortunately my digital camera was lost so i wasnt able to take vid or pictures

my car did the hesitating/backfiring thing before, turned out to be a cracked spark plug. just a thought, especially if you did headers or something recently

You're calling the guy in the 350Z stupid, yet you're racing your car while it has problems. Not too smart yourself.

Yes, it definitely is. At Five guys, they give you soooo much damn food for the money, that sometimes it's a struggle to finish it all, even for my friends that love earting . GREAT food, and it fills you up good.

It's like $3 or less at jbox for me . Five guys isn't an everyday thing, it's a treat. I'd be broke eating there all the time.
