97 Max GXE Auto vs 2nd Gen Legend Auto
The guy is a co-worker of mine (cool peeps) and he is dieing to race my GXE. He has a catback and cold air and a chip. I'll race anyone and I have even raced Sprintmax. The Legend isn't of the S series and I am confident I can get out ahead early but do you guys think I am wasting my time on this race?

I am sure you should be able to take him without too much trouble.

Why don't you get some bolt-ons, like CAI and a y-pipe? That will improve your 1/4 time. Then save up for recalibrated VB and maybe a 50 shot nitrous.

I beg to differ. If he has a chip, CAI, and Exhaust. He should be able to take you. Is he a coupe or sedan?

WAS a sedan. Somebody sideswiped it while it was parked. Now he might get an Accord.

I own a coupe, with just exhaust and intake, I can keep up with the Maxima all the way. I can pass a Maxima if I can get into 3 gear. I have a 94 Legend 6 speed coupe.

I also told him not to sleep on the 4th Gen 5Speed. I showed him theblue's video of his 14.2 1/4 run and in that race he took out a z28. He now believes that the Max is a worthy competitor, even with its "so called" 190hp.
