Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums General Common Interests Raced a new Altima

I raced a new altima yesterday. Not impressed at all. Granted it was the smaller 2.5L but still it should have been able to keep up with me. Perhaps the guy just ddnt know how to drive but I thought the thing would be faster. We both turned left through an intersection and due to the fact that he was a total TOOL and made me wait an entire light because he ddnt want to get out into the intersection on a green light I decided to pass him. He hammers it as soon as I start to make the pass. I am past him through second gear. I leave it in third and just keep slowing and speeding up to stay next to him. Just to mess with him of course. It did sound and look like he was really trying but who knows. The guy was a dork and needed to be boxed in behind the slow moving honda that we came up to. I left him there until traffic caught up with us and then I took off. Disappointed in the Altima. Side note: this was all with my AC on max and I was still able to let off the gas to keep him in the race.
