Went to a deserted industrial area for some fun and to see what I could do.
Raced against a 5spd 2007 350Z with a Stillen intake, stillin exhaust, full offroad racing headers and the GT package running 94 octane. My is completely stock running a 1/4 87 octane, and 3/4 89 octane.
Powered braked till 2200rpms, beep...beep..beep, slammed tha gas.
Car broke traction for a second and hooked. His car was making very tiny tiny gains as we acclerated and he shifted and after 70mph I was starting to crawl up and overtake in the higher speeds just as the race ended.
Overall, pretty well a dead heat. Lotsa fun though, the ole heart was beating. My car had 1 month old gas that was partly 87 still from the previous tank.
I'd call it pretty well a dead heat.
I'm going to recalibrate the accelerator, get some fresh gas, and have another go at it some time in the future.
