So, I'm back in town for the first time in four weeks and I'm going to a working lunch with a couple of guys from my office and I offer to drive them in the GN. We are driving along back beach road here in Panama City Beach, FL when a young kid in a 2 door Infinity G35 pulls along beside me in traffic doing about 35 mph and revs up and pulls out on me. He must be out fishing, but I laugh because we have no where to go due to traffic. Anyway, as luck would have it, traffic clears out a bit. He's in the left lane and I roll up in the right. I lower the window and look at him as we slow down to about 25 mph. I drop it in to Drive and hit the alky test button in preparation. He holds up 3 fingers and I just gesture for him to go for it if he would like to. Instead he counts off the three fingers while doing the three honks and takes off. He gets half a car on me as I jump into and break the tires loose. I proceed to blow by him like he it is literally standing still and put two cars on him almost instantly. I slow down and he pulls up with a stunned look on his face and says his car has a stage 1 motor in it (whatever that is in a G35??). Still stunned he says "What's in that???!" I said "It's just a V6 with a turbo" and smile. The guys my car were dying! As a friend of mine said later after I told him the story "He is probably reconsidering his life choices." Most fun I've had in the car in awhile.
