    @Maxichamp: I'd say someone should do the same thing with the Mustang but I know that somone would accidentally "forget" the Mustang II and then the Foxbody would come as a complete shock to the system as the 1973 shrinks to about half it's size. #nissan370z

    Seriously, though, I just right-clicked your (broken) images and selected "view image". The real version of what you were trying to post shows up in a new tab, and I can go look at it at my leisure. I used that trick all the time back when we had our special little "durrrr" code to embed images and people would screw it up. #nissan370z

    @PowerTryp forever Minardi: I still say the Mustang II ultimately saved the Mustang in the long run. They're due for that kind of size reset again. #nissan370z

    @TurboBrick [LIGIER]: I think a LOT of manufacturers and model lines are due for a size reset. I'd like to commend Audi and Mazda for their efforts at spearheading the diet program! #nissan370z

    @dragon951: well, I guess what I really meant is how could a 911 be on the same track as a Cayman and not win? Bad driver would be my guess.

    I have to say that any of these "pro" drivers would have their asses kicked by the entire field of an SCCA regional. The driving is garbage. Let me count the ways:

    1) Riding the clutch under power. That's a no-no and it's exhibited by at least two of them.

    2) "Threshold braking" ABS cars way below the actual level of grip.

    3) Two-foot gaps between the cars, passing in midcorner instead of under braking,

    4) Abysmal wiggle-steer, presumably to put some showmanship into the presentation by making these very easy-to-drive cars look scary.

    5) Inability to left-foot brake.

    Stuff like this demonstrates why Ralf Schumacher wiped the floor with Formula Nippon.

    This "race" is no more indicative of the cars' abilities than a show-and-shine would be.

    Hah! Check out the foot cam of the 370Z @ 6:45, looks like he goes to blip the throttle with his heel for a split second before remembering the synchrorev-match system.

    Why the shock that the Cayman S beat the Z,it also beat it on the TG track. The Cayman is a great car to drive.

    @layabout returns:
    Also interesting is how the 911 with PDK came in behind the Z, if I remember correctly, the 911's beat all the Z cars by a wide margin in the 370z v. 911 shootout.

    The guy in the 911 could outbrake that Z all day long, he just didn't. Very early braking on the drivers part, it's almost as if they let it win.

    I bet the Z would have had the Cayman if it had started in the place of the 135i. The bimmer blocked lines and let the coxster get a huge lead.

    It also shows that Porsche is holding the Cayman in favor of the so called heritage.

    r0ver: With the Z, one of the best exhaust notes in the market, they could be speaking Klingon and I still would turn all the way up.

    EDIT: You're right, you almost can't hear the engines.

    So it's either the 370Z which has uninspiring exhaust note and the synchro-blah, or the Z4 S-drive 3.0i with the exciting new feature of LOSING a freaking handbrake. Sure is hard to choose between two blah cars....How about neither?
