350z on Forza Challenge

Against an early (Year One) Camaro, a newer Mustang and Newer Corvette...

In the 1/4- the 350 sucked. What a slug.

Road Atlanta-

Did you see the guy in the 350z cut the corner on the road course? I about fell out of my chair.

Ken Gushi is a great driver, he should win the drift portion of the competition. He was beating the steering wheel apart because he ran out of power, I'm curious what the mods are going to be to the cars to see if it'll make the Z more competitive.

I think he needs to practice his launching skills. The 350Z should be able to perform a bit better than that.

The Corvette driver was playing with the 350Z car. That's the only way it could've finished as good as it did.

The stock Mustang did good, and the YearOne Camaro should give his owner a refund for the restoration.

Actually, thats a relatively slow track. I've been there many a times when I had a 350, and those times were right in line for a stock 350z. We had a big group of us 350z and G35 owners that used to go regularly on friday nights. The track down in Macon is about 1/2 second quicker. The Z was just out muscled on that track.

The corvette driver didn't know how to drive. You could see the fear in his eyes.

I read on the speed forums that gushi had actually lost his brakes for the last few laps. Thats why he cut the corner.

I rode in a 350Z for the first time today. Convertivble/Automatic

Handled nicely but the accelleration up to 85 was less than I expected. Fellow driving is in his 60s. He did scare the Sh8^T out of me going around those corners. We live way out in the country and was having our Lions Club meeting. I asked him to take me for a ride. He had a 240z in the early 70s. Nearly spilt my beverage going around those country roads. I remember saying" Hey- I have 4 kids" "SLOOOOOW down" :)

It's definetly different when you are the passenger.......nice car
