Default Z race in Top Gear

All versions of the Z do a drag run.....Clarkson behind the wheels of his "favorite" car and gets beat by the 300ZX and whines....

0-60 times, hp to weight ratios, 1/4 mile etc. tell the story much better than a test where no one is even fully on the throttle. The more I watch this guy, the more I realize he is letting his personal bias interfere with his reporting. A big no-no in my opinion.

well isn't that awesome! maybe this fith gear guy is getting to me but thats pretty cheezy of nissan to build a brand new sports car that gets whooped on by virtually the same car...thats atleast 10 years old! way to go nissan. maybe all the stares we get driving our car is from people who know we will get our asses handed to them. i might be tired and hungover but nothin like telling people its new and improved and you get it home and find out its the same ol crap but in a shiny new wrapper...for those about to drive...nissan we salute you....prolly best with the middle finger response!
