Default 1st Highway Kill of 2010-370Z

Coming out of a road construction junction, we hit the end and were at the front of the pack.

We started at about 40, he got the jump and we were even at 60mph and I pulled until 120mph.

It was a young guy, and I guess he was mad that he lost because I gave him a thumbs up and he just glared at me.

Either way it was a fun race.

Good kill! 370's are slow and over priced.

No judging... they are so close in performance stock, that a few choice effective mods (especially your stall) really make the difference.

False on both points. But way to look dumb.

It would be 2.73s or 3.23s. 6 speeds have 3.42s.

3200. I don't really count it, or my lid, as mods because the stall is so tight, and the lid is just a lid.

I don't really have any bashing to do on the 370's as they are about as close to Skyline as you're going to get, and this guys car was bright red and looked really really clean.

The GT-R maybe...? But yes, the 370Zs have gone BOTTOM 13s @ ~106-107mph, and start just under $30k. So to call them slow and overpriced smacks of hypocrisy at best, and screams idiocy at worst.

I dont count my 402 as a mod because its just a motor and my car has to have it to move. I mean hell its the stock block I just replaced the rotating assembly with another one.

Nice kill! How much did you get on him?

Lol @ anyone saying they're overpriced and slouches. Remember guys its just a v6 I'm impressed with how much car you get for the money, its the best (new) sports car you can get for the $. Then again I can see why many people call these cars slow on here because there are some very fast rides on here. Once again, nice kill
