I was looking for some entertainment.
I saw the one guy I had raced (and got a ticket from said race), but he left as I pulled in.
So I sit down at Rally's and a couple of his buddies are hanging out.
I tell then we raced and I won, they ask what are you running, and I tell them a little bit about the VH45DE..
Then the one guy says, "so what kinda car is that?"
I say "an Infiniti Q45"
The guy: " Yeah Infiniti's are faaast, even stock"
This is the second time I heard one of the local racers say that, almost exact same phrase.
And I dont really talk to them all that much.:pface
I think our brand has some serious street cred, at least here on preston.

I searched through their forum and a few of those guys griped about trying to find an elusive shock/spring combo that would alleviate that unstable feeling at high speeds.
Anyone also read the latest SUPER CAR SHOOTOUT Car and Driver did? They also complained about it and said even Lingenfelter's TT C5 suffered the same problems even though he had mammoth 12.5" wide tires in the back.
