[s-cars] My butt momentarily in a BMW

[QSHIPQ at aol.com]

Guys
I've driven the 350z, and stop light raced one in my urq...   The  G35 is 
just heavier, but certainly has a better matched engine/drivetrain combo  as a 
6spd manual shift car.  The power to weight gives paulie the  advantage, but not 
by any huge amount: ~ 10%.  Less if that was an '08  330hp G37 coupe Paulie 
was crawling from.
 
Funny: I put up a post on the urq list a few weeks ago regarding stop light  
races vs a 350z and a 3.5 maxima.  Took both with basic mods to the  urq.  
With the 930 when you just compare the specifications vs G35  I  see no reason 
for a G35 to be ditched nor embarrassed to go after the 930.   At full boil WOT 
high revs, I would expect Paulie to start the walk away  process, but in stock 
930 trim, it's not going to be a smoke.  Same reason  I go after Hackl when 
he fires up his 79 930 with my urq.  I like making P  drivers work for 
supremacy.  Modded P drivers, game over.  Get on with  that program Paulie!
 
Just my .02

The only way a G35 could realistically keep  up with a 930 is
either twin-turbo or Vortech/Procharger supercharger on a  built, lower
compression engine. HKS' blower only gives 45hp on a 350Z!?!  so it's
pretty much worthless. 

I'll bet  the 930 would wake up a lot if you dropped in a G50 box
in there.  :-)

Do you have stock exhaust on the  930?

Gee, ya know, now that you mention it ...  I   * musta *  been
hallucenamagating (again).  Dreamt it maybe  even???   

And, ya know, I must  be imagining that my 282hp 2,950lb car
pulls like a f'n FREIGHT TRAIN...  esp. the 4th blast from 90-150.  My
car * must * be slower than it  feels, and really needs to 'wake up'.

Orrrrrrrrrrrr, heh,  this all could have REALLY actually
happened.

Or something and stuff and things - I think.
