Default Wooo!

Im sure most of you have seen me respond to races and stuff and can tell I have a 97 3.8 Camaro.

Well I finally have a kill thats not a Civic or a truck.

EDIT: 95-99 Nissan Maxima

Alright two guys were behind me and a vehicle next to me driving fast and laughing and being cocky(I could see in rearview) and I knew what they wanted to do. So I was pulling up to the 45 to 60mph stretch of road and sped up to speed. When the car next to me was back a way they tried to gun it past me but I floored it and pulled about 2 cars from about 55-60 to about 75ish and let off.

They tried the same thing again probably thinking they could get me this time, but nope, denied again same results.

After this they decided not to ride my *** and turned off later on. Hehe.

I know I know, slow cars, blah blah. I am part of the Street Racing section so I wanted to post it.

Thanks for reading.

190hp DOHC 3.0 V6 95-99 Maxima with driver and passenger VS. Me and passenger. 55-60 to 75ish pulled 2 cars and let out. I am surprsed too because it only weighs about 3000lbs empty.

They ran high 15s bone stock. Not bad for a 190 hp maxima. My mother has a 2001 maxima, it puts out 222hp and runs low 15s. Not bad for a 4 door. 2002 was the first year for the 3.5L. It has 255hp than the following year was 265hp. I think they upped it again.

If this continues, our F-Bodies will be inferior to the might of V6s... Scary thought...

I don't have any badges on my car, so kids in ****** maximas and other (V6) camaros try to race me all the time. I love their faces when I put it in first at a 30 roll and dust them

..when I bother to race them anyway lol (91 octane is expensive).
