one of my friends at the nissan dealer has an M3 auto...... he has talked about how it tears off the line and with me just gettin my NOS he figured that it would be a good race so we lined up and we r off i sprayed the first run and he left it in drive and i beat him by about 4 cars.... and i got of the line faster than him too.... 2nd run no NOS he ate me for lunch but it didnt help that i ran out of gas! the car just stopped acclerating.... engine to engine he wins! 3rd run with NOS and he takes the TCS and puts on sports drive! i get him off the line and pull by a half a car and barely nudge on from there....0-100 i beat him by a car! not too bad! that sports drive really helps! but my 65 shot is better! hehe! 3rd gear in the autos SUCK! i hate it.... SLOW SLOW SLOW!!!!

OK here come the flames! read my sig and then flame! THANKS!!! cant wait to see what some of u say it has been gettin hostile around here lately! LET THE FLAMES BEGIN!!!!!!

I'll be the first to flame I guess. Even an auto m3 I would think would be faster than a max with nos. Ive driven an older auto m3 but never a max with nos so maybe maybe not...either way I'd still rather have the m3

Was he power shifting or just hitting the accelerator?

M3's are fast, so if you did beat that one, good job!
i've raced some bmw's from 60+ and i always beat them, prolly cause i have bigger ***** than them so i take corners harder and go 120+, they shut down at 110.. im sure they can keep up with us, they just dont. ever notice how bmw's have no wheel gap????? while we have to spend money to lower our cars?! no fair!

1st race he pressed the gas 2nd and 3rd he power shifted tipronic with the TCS traction control off.... so he hung better! but think what u want the guy congradulated me and was rather impressed considering he sells maximas all day not knowin that mine could take his M3!

Yeah I must agree that stock to stock a M3 would take a Maxima. I never knew how good they were till I drove my gf's brothers for the weekend. Man let me tell you they handle like a ****. Now I know what they mean about German engineering.

your mods alone give out more than around 240 to the flywheel.. with a 60shot nos.. you should be able to take out the e36 m3. they werent blistering fast.. and im guessing, your runnin low 14s now?
