Default LT1 vs G35 no vids

With my turn less than a 1/4 mile away some jackass decided he needed to pass me. I proceeded to watch him drive around the corner like a rally car while following close behind. I kept pace until the road cleared up then I hammered it in 3rd @ 65, I let off in 5th around 110 or so with a good few bus lengths ahead.

I could tell he was on it just by his overly aggressive driving. A few miles down the road I let him pass considering he felt it necessary to continue to do 80 in a 55 for 10 more miles. Guy appeared to be in his mid 30s and didn't acknowledge me after the race.

Kind of a boring kill, but still fun. I know nothing about G35s other than I just ran one. My 383 is a fairly mild build, haven't had it to the track since it was dyno tuned.

My brother has one of them. 6MT 2007.. Its pretty fun and quick, but not super quick in a straight line. He still thinks he has a chance against the Buick

I read some of them have a 300 hp V6. No clue what this one had though. I live in the middle of nowhere so it was a really random encounter. Still fun to run away from a cocky import.

He couldn't have been happy getting passed by the dreaded boat anchor.

Bolt ons, Small cam and crappy heads. Only put down 351rwhp and 374ft lbs through a Ford 9" and 100 degree August heat.

I plan on upgrading to a better H/C combo some day. In the mean time I figured I'd make the most of what I have with a dynotune.
