Default Got pulled by a g35 sedan !

Alright guys i have let down the s2k community, i made us look bad, please don't hate on me.

Anyways i was cruisen down a pretty empty road when a g35 sedan started to pace me. I didn't think much of it cause i thought it was just an older person that wouldn't be interested in racing, then he started to punch it, so i decided i'd speed up too but then he punched it more, so i figured i would also, but i was in 4th gear at only 4k rpms, so my acceleration was a bit slow. So therefore the sedan pulled ahead, DAM. I haven't had my car long so still trying to master how to drive it, i'm so use to my integra, since its turboed at 4k rpms if i would punch it , it would still pull nicely enough to smoke a g35 sedan since it is putting down 300hp and 245tq, so i'm sorry guys, don't hate the noob.

It's ok, at least you didn't go all out and loose. Fourth gear, next time drop down, and you'll have much better results. Just don't ever let it happen again! J/K

How many cars did he put on you before you shut down? Could you tell if he was manual or auto?

Hmmm 4th gear already at 4K rpm.. 2nd gear might be a little close to a kaboom

Yeah he pulled about half a car when I realized I goofed, once I get rid of my integra I will only be driving the S, so that way I can remember which car I'm in next time.
