With decent tires he should have been able to pull a mid 12. Thats plenty fast as I’d ever want a Maxima to be. i think we were trapping somewhere around 108’s that day… :dunno: once we started getting over 14-15% fuel correction, it started to really respond. Someday i will build another…a 4 door, roomy car w/leather…that could do 12’s …mmmmmm ---

Supposedly it only having like 15hp more than the standard Altima. I’m no expert, but heard its not worth what Nissan is going to want for it. Rumored $4500 more than the Altima. ---

i run 15.1 to 15.4 all day long and my car even broke into the 14s last october with a 14.92 at englishtown NJ at SLP days…thats with my friend driving but most of the v6 camaro usually run15.4 to 15.8 depends on driver and auto vs stick…seriously v6 stangs run stock hi 15s low 16s …they weigh as much as a GT also but i am sure there are some freaks out there but to be in the 14s i highly doubt it ---

Most people who buy the V6 models do not have any interest in drag racing. Although you sometimes get the person who wants to run their beater 6 cyl for shits and giggles. ---

> [@slowcamaro](#): > > at the track i never seen one run faster than a 15.7 I’m going with you on this… V6 stangs(manuals cause the autos are dogs) aren’t even quicker then SVT contours… stock to lightly modded SVT’s run aprox 14.8-15.4 and they have a ford v6 shootout every year and talk about it on the contour forum…and i rarely hear about v6 stangs beating SVT contours. they got some decent tq. but if you can get a good launch the contour will beat it all day on the top end. i’ve even seen time slips of modded contour SE’s and V6 Cougars (same engine) giving v6 stangs a run. ---
