raced a oldsmobile aurora

we raced from 70 to about 110 mph. i allmost rearended him , we started out with me behind. i kept leting off gas.could not get next to him due to traffic. he had special exhaust(chrome mufflers underneith)and a big stupid wing. not even a race. i think it said 3.5liter on the trunk. i read they have 215 h.p. but he was modded.the exhaust sounded deep like a v8, allso walked a mustang 95-96 gt..80 -120. walked him slowly but surely......

I raced one of the V8's back in August of last year. I beat it, but not by much. They seem to be pretty comparable with the Maxima auto's. Of course with your mods you should leave either of them behind.

Had a similar race with a Grand Prix GTP. I'm going at about 75mph (my normal cruising speed) and this white GTP rolls up right behind me on the NJ Turnpike and then tries to dart around me. I hit the throttle and immediately start to pull on him as I see him try to keep up. As I reach traffic ahead of me I slow down and look in my mirror only to see this guy bearing down on me hard and then braking hard.

This is what I love about my 2K2: Putting those S/C Grand Prixs in their place AT WILL!
