I've read enough of the OP's posts that I'm not worried about him giving a good run depending on the M3 driver. It will either be a close run (M3 driver good) or a blow away by the OP....just my opinion though.
Close to what I said....but the OP has the experience...does the M3 driver in this instance.

Is it a stock M3? You might have trouble with a modded M3. Good luck and have fun spanking his ***.

Steve has his 370 set up for drag racing. It really should be a no contest win for the Z in this case. Steve's very consistent.

Exactly my thoughts. Maybe if the M3 had a couple mods it would be close, but stock M3 doesn't have a chance.

Even stock for stock the 7AT has a good shot when it's up against an MT. 7AT has launch and consistency on it's side. It's nearly impossible to have a bad run, whereas it's very easy for an MT driver to botch a launch or shift.

a lightly tuned and modified 370z being driven by someone who has lots of experience drag racing that exact car MIGHT beat a brand new stock M3 (driven by someone who just bought the car) down the 1/4 mile.

but the M3 is still the faster car. and everyone knows it.

I don't think Z elim's car counts as lightly modified

Completely stock m3's are fast. In order to beat a stock m3 in a straight line you need literally every bolt on you can do to the Z (see my sig) without boost. Keep in mind that will BARELY have you pull on the m3, they are fast stock. At the track it will be a drivers race, zelim will likely win due to experience.
