It was slow as hell. Im not sure about the manual one thou. Just race him, and if you lose, spend a little money and race him again. If you have a radar detector, If he starts winning, slam on your brakes and turn/get in the right lane (whatever) and he will probably do the same. tell him you got some radar

from what i have heard the manuals run about a second faster in the 1/4 cuz the gears are too long in the automatics. the manual 3000gt's 3rd gear tops at a little over 100mph from what he said.

I don't have a radar detector

I think the race will be in a couple hours ill try to post the results

sry bro... but u wont win... my buddy has a 3000gt... i can beat it in my turbo supra but only by 2 1/2 maybe 3 lengths ... kinda rough they got the weight advantage and supras are kinda slow of the line... u might possibly win if he cant shift worth sht... but gl bro... i wouldnt even waiste the $30 its not worth the humiliation

After he's leveled up it'll be closer )

We don't have that much money so we are just betting $30.

I have heard that he is a pretty good driver but i have never ridden in his car

Haha I asked him the samething when i saw his car "whats a 3000GT SL"
He said it was the sport luxury model or something. It just has all the "options" on it i guess
