I don't care what the magazines say.

I've seen two Infinity G35 Sport cars (the 4door versions) go flat 14's. And yes, we're talking 14.00 and it was in June of 07 at Beech bend. I'll try to find the pic again that showed them and the 14.00 ET on the board.

But my point is, the 2door version should be good for 13's stock since it should also weigh less than the 4door luxury family car that has the same motor.

ya please dont use magazine logic....the real world and magazine world are entirely different....magazines say the charger srt8 should be smoking me like crazy but i've raced a few and they arent all that tough...hell i think the g37 gave me a harder time than the high end charger

[JohnC]

I'm still searching for the pic, but here are the two cars that cut flat 14's...

[JohnC]

I went to the guys galley and found a motor shot of the black G35s that ran a flat 14 and it looks like the 3.5L DOHC V6, so if you raced the car with the 3.7L DOHC V6 it's a lot quicker.

I still can't tell for sure if this says 3.5 or 3.7 since I'm blind as crap.

Actually the 2 door version weighs more than the 4 door. The 2door weighs in at 3688 and the 4door weighs 3532. Granted the G37 has 30 more horses than the Mustang GT, it has 50 less LBS of TQ than the Mustang. Doesn't tq usually win with all other factors being equal? Yes, I know magazines can be flawed, but it is better than nothing.

Edit, it's the 07 G35s with 306hp 3.5L dohc V6.

Here is his post after the track day.

So yeah, if the G35s 4 door can do flat 14 ET's with the 3.5L 306hp V6, then the G37 with the 3.7L 330hp V6 should be good for mid 13's easy.

Some kid in a bone stock, 2-door G35 come up to me and wanted a race. It was one of the worst beatings I ever handed out. Pointless story, but I enjoy re-living the moment in my mind.

I think your mustang would have problems against my superbee srt-8. The only mod is a K/N air filter.

UMMM random! we are talking about infinitys and Fords, who said anything about dodges? you really cant compare a srt-8 to a GT, its apples and oranges. you can compare a V6 to a v6, an R/T to a GT, and a srt-8 to a gt500...oh look at that, Ford wins them all!

07 g35's are AWD(so its a bit better off the line the the G37) and the suspension for the G37's dont really make a good car to take off with. it is possible to make a G37 run mid 13's but you wont see it much, just like you wont see much S197's run low 13's stock.

so u were doing 110 mph on that street going to the next red light?

that was kindof dumb IMO and both of u took the race too far. yeah i used to do quick races from redlight to redlight(before i got caught) but ive never gone through a city/town at speeds like that. i hope u control yourself better next time.

Here is where the SRT-8 was addressed. I would hope the GT500 (supercharged) would take a stock SRT-8 N/A. But, at the track sometimes they do and sometimes they dont.

your right i didnt even see that guys post about the chargers...but...was that an excuse? gt500's come supercharged out of factory so its not fair? only way an srt-8 is beating a GT-500 at the track is if the cobra has a terrible driver.

Yep agree but it happens more then you would think. SRT-8s like my superbee are automatics and with the stick in the GT500 most of the races are lost at the line when the GT500 goes up in smoke. Really it is pretty easy to get 400+RWHP out of the srt-8. Hearders and a cold air intake will do the trick. If you give it a 75 shot of juice or go with a JETPACK ECU plug in you will beat most GT500s unless the driver really knows what he/she is doing.

[leebunnyz]

well yeah when you start modding a car eventually it will be faster then whatever your comapring it to...what exactly is the superbee? black and yellow charger right?
