Took on an Infinity G35 yesterday . . .

[studio460]

Wasn't sure I could take him but . . .

Me and a black Infinity G35 were both zipping through light traffic yesterday, nearly in tandem, so I thought, I wonder if . . . So we both stopped at the next red light, each in our own lane. I never looked at the driver, but apparently, we were both thinking the same thing. The light turned green, and with a light chirp, I was off (we both had decent reaction time). We were neck and neck for the first 100 feet, then as soon as I hit second (shifting automatically, no less), I pulled about two car lengths ahead. I had it floored. He did too from the sound of his exhaust. When I looked back to gloat, he turned right somewhere and disappeared. Made my morning.

Nice!!!! ...hey, I haven't seen you around in awhile....welcome back.....

[David Morton]

I especially like the part where they disappear with their tails between their legs. Makes me laugh. :D

Way to go Shooter. The kills keep coming.

Shooter,

That was the G35 coupe right...no fair picking on the sedan.

nice kill no matter what tpye of G35 it was, and anyone looking at Shooters Photo Gallery knows what he's been up too lately.

I also find this "separate lane" technique to work best !!! :rolleyes: BTW, nice kill story and congrats. :D

No fair? We drive 4500 lb. sedans... sounds fair enough to me :)

It's not like we're driving cobras picking on minivans here.. it's sedan on sedan action!

NBC: Must've been my driving lesson in Van Nuys last fall, LOL! -kjs-

[Big House]

No he didn't...you just didn't know he was trying to make a run of it.

I never knew an Infinity was any kind of challenge for anything.

[Ross]

Another ricer kill! OK, a very expensive ricer, but a ricer nonetheless. Way to go, buddy!

[studio460]

Thanks for the kudos, guys. Yup, pretty darn sure it was the coupe.

I would say that it's completely feasible that you smoked a coupe. I ran against one last night at the drags. He ran 14.659@97.91 (6-speed). You would think that a car that small with that much HP would lay down better times than that.

Way to represent out west! :)

My wife had a run in with an infinity , she said it was the suv type got next to laughing at her .so she nailed it as well as he did and that suv was gone(like a bullet out of a gun) and she couldn't even catch up even superchaged .they do make a supercharger kit for those thingswhich i heard puts them into 10 second street runners..

[bigjon]

damn! :burnout:

Strange that you should mention out running a G35. My wife has one that up til now is the fastest thing I have owned since my 1971 SS454 Chevelle. It will be interesting to see if it can stay with the 04 MM DTR that I will be picking up later this week. This will be the most fun that we have had since we raced her 1972 Mach 1 against my 1969 Mach 1 back when we were dating. The young couples that we teach will probably think we have lost our minds. They just don't understand muscle cars.
