Could not pass and Infifnit...

It was about 3 weeks ago when I pulled up next to a brand new Infiniti Q45 with my friend. WE raced to the next light, to about 70 mph. I took him off the line by a little and then he came back up to me. He got about a half a hood ahead of me and we were like that for just about the whole race. The Q45 had 242 horses with a V-8.

Infiniti Q45's dont weigh squat and can turn rpms so high and quickly you should be glad that you kept up with him unless you modded the hell out of you car and that was the best it would do.

According to their web site, the new Q45 weighs 3801 lbs, horsepower is 340, torque is 333. 0 to 60 in 5.9 sec. Should put it about mid 14 in quarter. You should be glad you did as well as you did!!!! Actually, if you were able to hang with one like that, it doesn't seem like you would have to do too much to beat one though.

Good Luck,

Ken
