Wow!!! Run With A 350z
I have been waiting for this opportunity.....
Last night did 3 runs with a automatic Z.....never passed 70 mph tho....alll 3 times the z was 1/4 car behind me....not alot of distance but man....i thought he will walk away on 3 rd gear but even i was surprised.
I noticed one thing...when i was in 2nd gear....his auto shifted to 3rd while i still was in 2nd...almost at redline ....that gave me a slight edge over the auto z....but all in all my 260 horses VS 287 ..really made my day!! i was impressed.!!

well, you're kind of comparing apples to oranges (6spd vs. Auto) but nice kill anyhow. I'm itching to race a cls 6spd...any takers in my area?

The CL has taller gearing. Many think of this as a disadvantage but for some speed regions (like up to 70 mph) the ability to be in a lower gear as you reach 70 is an advantage.
