I was driving home from doing my weekly shopping on a four lane road, and a SHO came up behind me and started gunning his engine. He then pulled up next to me and waited for me, I downshifted into second and waited for him to make the move. He floored it and I did likewise we had a pretty darn close race up to about 110, The road gets very curvy and I knew it like the back of my hand, he didn't have local plates so I figured he would not be familiar with the road, so I got behind him and waited for the curves. When we got close to them he started to brake for the first curve. I allready knew how fast I could take these so I pulled to the left and took the lead and never looked back he was able to keep close on the straight but in the curves the Maxima really flexed its muscles. I had a pretty big lead so I got out of the gas and waited for him at a 4-way stop in the road. He pulled up next to me and gave me a thumbs up and took off, I just smiled and did the same to him. He had on of the middle models, v-6 and 5 speed looked totally stock. I have a bone stock 95se 5-speed, my only advantage is that I am an experienced autocrosser, and I have some serious bridgstones on the car that allow me to corner very well. I am sure he had all-season tires and little road experience, oh well to bad for him"Maxima wins again!"
