I have lost plenty of races. Modded EVO's, I beat 1 EVO thats about it.

I have 3 people on this forum that can vouch for me, and has driven my car. I dident know there was that much retards on my350z. I posted a simple question, and I get flamed for it.

I dont need to check my grammer, I type to fast to even go back, on what I even wrote. its more of a typo.

My car pings redline at 54mph in 2nd gear, so Mabe I do have gears.

Also I bought the car in socal from the first owner.

54mph is low. What is your rear tire size?

I do defend the typos.

We arent in English, we arent writing a thesis paper.

We are on an internet forum...as long as its understood I dont think people should judge spelling/grammar.

it is not always about how much hp or torque you have, its the driver behind the wheel. you can have all the mods you want, but if you cant drive well, then you will still lose.

I guess anything is possible...

That guy is definitely a poser but I suddenly don't feel so amped about turboing my car when a member calls a 400whp Z a P.O.S.

Call your 350Z friends again and have them drive your car and YOU drive their 350Z.......and then let us know again if they won the RACE or you won the RACE again. This way we will know the answer to this THREAD: EXCELLENT CAR or AWESOME DRIVER???
