hahaha have to say that the exige should be able to rape our z's up the butt. Well those of us that are still na. I think it might be easier for the z to keep up because hes driving from behind, so he can analyze braking points and lines based on how the exige is acting. But that could just be me watching too much initial d. gawd i loved that show whens the new season coming out?

The Exige driver is terrible, the Z driver was very aggressive and defenitely was capable of wining that race

Did the Z driver know the Lotus driver?

If I was crusing up the mountain side in my Lotus and saw on 350z on my tail I would be like "WTF?" and carry on like no one was there.

It so much easier for the 350Z driver to be more aggressive due to the fact that he is following the Lotus. Also the Lotus driver was scared

The Lotus driver clearly has no idea what his car is capable of.

Rental 350Z?
Someone has to say take street racing, especially blind rally style grip racing to the track.
