ok so this guy at work just bought a 350z convertable and i have been trying to get him to race since he bought it but the weather has been too bad. anyway today i get him to agree to race me after work but only if i bet $100. so isay ok with no intention of actually keeping his money. so we go from a 60mph roll and i put 1 car on him before the end of 3rd and many many more in fourth. so we stop and exchange money and i give him his money back and tell him it was fun. he tells me to keep his cash and let's go double or nothin. after 20 min of me telling him it's not worth it he finally pisses me off enough to race again only this time i'm keeping his money when it is over. so we run again and the same result only he stays on it longer but still loses by at least 9 cars. we get back to the parking lot and he wants to race again! i tell him no it is pointless but he tells me to wait where i am and leaves. he comes back with $400 and wants to race again! what a glutten for punishment! but instead of taking his money i leave.

my mods: 3inch elbow back w/gutted cat, stock hg w/ bolts tourqed, cool eeze intake w/ k&n, ct-26 50 trim turbo @ 12psi, custom 2 1/4 intercooler piping. gen 1 dsm bov, a/c removed.

The verts are real heavy.

Was it an auto? if so you are looking at a car barely faster than a stock mk3 turbo.

The six speed coupes are alot better.

a stock 350z is a 100 mph car.. nothing special.. a vert even slower.. i guess he thought he had something? lol..

sounds like he was trying to see how far you would push your car and hoping it would blow up so he could get his money back???? just my opinion.

Hell from the way it sounds, you should have short shifted the hell out of it after the first race to make him think he's doing better and then get more money off of him ;).

Yeah that $400 could have gone towards some nice mods:) Nice kill though. I work with a guy that has the 300hp 350Z and I would love to race him. But as it is now, I would lose due to my setup.
