j/w...(kinda off topic)...but how much can.......

.....about 18" or 19" (looked like 19s) chrome wheels and 4 grown passengers slow down a completely stock 2002 Maxima SE automatic?? im asking this because of only one reason...me and a friend were cruising down I-95, cruise set at about 80. we see another max ahead of us and we pulled up beside him and my friend was like "race the guy for fun"...(i didnt know it was an 02 until i pulled up next to him and saw the HIDs)...then i was like nah man thats an 02 hell kill me. so i look over and again the guy motions to me to race. so i was like what the hell, ill race him just to see that thing run kuz i know hell kill me. started from about an 80 launch and he didnt pull on me at all, infact i had a slow pull on him (i had OD turned off for the 80 launch). i started to slowly pull ahead and was thinkin wtf is goin on here? we didnt even race up to much past 100 mainly because the only reason i raced the guy in the first place was to see him toast me and he didnt. i was kinda disappointed, i wanted to see the 02 max run. which made me wonder just how much can a set of big chrome wheels slow a car down? and it wasnt an 00-01 with 02 HIDs and tail lights because you dont see anything but riced out hondas and S-10s around here. anyway....get back to me on this...been wondering about that for a while since ADMAN has chromies and all, just wonderin how much they can slow a car down. one other thing...IM NOT POSTING A KILL STORY SAYING I BEAT A 2K2, because i know i wouldnt unless something was wrong.
