Passing a G35 @100mph, the G35 decided to catch up to me. Now, side by side, he hit the gas and pulled ahead of me. Too bad I hesitated to hit the gas as he pulled. With someone sleeping in my passenger side seat and luggage in the trunk, I debated and decided "what the hell, why not." So I press the gas pedal all the way down and I see that I'm going the same speed as the G35, about 120+. Most likely he was giving it his all because I was unable to close the gap between us. He was only about a half car length ahead of me when I decided to accelerate from 100mph. Seeing that I wasn't worth the effort I let off the gas and continued to cruise normally. He on the other hand hit the brakes and decided to hide behind a truck  . I never heard a peep from my V1. I think I did pretty well for a sedan  and I've read similar posts with just about the same results. I'd love to whoop one of those G35's or the 350's when I get a good chance again. |

Road Racing is immature and dangerous behavior.
Besides, if you want something to win races there are cheaper muscle cars out there such as a Pontiac GTO or souped up Mustangs and Mitsubishis.
A E39 is all about the perfect compromise between luxury and performance.

He probably hide behind a truck because he thought your V1 had detected a speed trap... LOL
If you want to beat these cars you need to have your limiter removed. I thought the max speed of 540 is around 145?
Besides, you have so much gunk in your engine...
