DOMO

Man they must of had a crappy launch. Theirs no way that a stock ? g35x should be owning A/T G35 or M/t G35 by 1xxmph.

I my self have pulled 2 1/2 cars on a a/t g35 coupe from a 40 roll to 100-110.. I have to admit that we were dead even till around 60 after i hit 3rd is when i started to pull. Ive seen some videos of A/t g35's and they seem very slugish around the 80-100mph range.

That's because the drivers were letting the car shift itself. If you leave the 5AT in auto mode, it will shift the 3 to 4 at around 89mph which is way too early. Manually shifting, you car hold 3rd till ~101mph and ride a much fatter powerband.

Noooooo, YOU didn't beat the other car, your CAR beat the other car. Now when someone in a MT wins, then they can say " I beat (insert car name)"

yep. However the owner did something right (performance wise) to get the car to win.... BTW, my car loves beating MTs

eh... all my posts are bogus.

Except for the ones that state reality: AT sedans = slugs.

Its a fact. Ask MTs (coupes & sedans).

I love my 6MT but if I drove in traffic all the time I would have an AT for sure.
