Sorry I'll make it long, understand if you're too bored to read I just couldn't skip the juice, would be like no salt in your food. :biggrin:
I wasn't even gonna write if it was just me against the Z, but I happened to be out and about with a friend in a Seat Ibiza Cupra 1.4 TSI full bolt on stage 2 and it was one of the few chances we had to do a triple. My friend's Cupra is a pocket rocket and always stays with me up until I throw 4th, when top end helps me creep away exponentially as we pick up speed.
So we're cruising in a triple lane ring road, late at night maybe a couple cars but they were behind us. We're sitting at a light in the middle lane I had the Cupra behind me (obviously we cruise in the same lane when we're going somewhere), light goes green and like few seconds later a 350Z flies by hauling ass to the left. Without any delay, attack mode on and luckily next light was red. I was in the middle and had the Z to my left and my friend to the right.
I bet the Z driver fucked up the launch throwing away any advantage he had off the line, so by the time I hit 2nd I have him by half a car. Cupra was about half a car ahead of me (that specific Cupra usually gets me off the line just a little bit, but this time I tip my hat I was beaten fair and square at least up to 4th). 3rd gear I start reeling the Cupra in while the Z falls even further behind. About 100 mph I'm side by side with the Cupra, Z must now be a bus length behind, and we shut down about 120 with me ahead, Cupra about a couple cars behind and the Z being pretty much destroyed.
Z didn't have enough I guess, because next light we had a repeat. Except this time we did a roll (like that was gonna help). However the roll was more like between them because I was now sitting in the left, Cupra in the middle and I had the Z behind me. So we go gently off the line and once I'm in 2nd I hit it. Z hits it right after me and my friend who was waiting on the Z hits it after him. Long story short, I must've put the Z like 3 bus lengths by the time we shut down (about 140 mph), but I was very impressed by the Cupra that was also creeping away from the Z and exponentially too. I mean I was expecting at some point the Z would at least hold the Cupra, but no. Like a bus length between them probably more.
Z had an exhaust that's just about all we could tell, dunno if he had a tune or anything. When I shut down I went back to the middle lane in front of my friend who came up behind me and the Z driver did the typical fly by to the left. I think he got mad, didn't stay to talk and no thumbs up. We actually ran into him few lights ahead but no more racing, dude was now so quiet like his engine broke, he got off few seconds later and we parked at an empty parking lot for ice cream and talk about the runs. :biggrin:
