No it's not IMO. Drag racing is fun, running the engine at 10/10ths, doing raw power runs are a gas, and it's exhilarating to see another guys bumper drop further and further back. Of course, I saw a lot more of that when I had my tuned G8 GT, lol.

most any speed competition is fun, that's why most of us in here got into a performance car...I think. Drag racing is super fun & a rush for sure on the lights at a legit facility but I actually prefer the road course. The dragstrip here is just so convenient, I can go on my way home from work & run all night for $15.

Does the 7AT have a launch control or something.
Last time i checked the most important factor for drag racing was the launch from a dig.
Of course smooth power bands, reaction time, and 2wd/4wd make a difference too.
I would think a 6mt that feathers the clutch from launch would make better time compared to a 7AT that just holds the brake and gas at the same time then releases brake.

I've only gone to the track once and my best run was 13.6 @102. Actually I think I had at least two runs with that ET and MPH. I tried leaving the line harder but got wheel hop and did worse... Oh, and I have the 7AT.
I thought the G would trap higher, but I think that had something to do with the weather. A modded G8 I raced several times was only hitting 104 MPH.
Although I had fun, I really miss my old ride... My mostly stock 2001 Corvette ran a best of 12.8 @ 112 MPH. Now THAT was a fun car!

G37x is faster than a G37xS because it is lighter both of my friends ran multiple times and the x beat the xS by almost a car lenght. A coupe Manual is on the same level as the x sedan, I seen it and couldn't believe it. Our cars top out 149Mph top.
I personally own a 2010 Maxima intake/y-pipe/deleted resonator. I don't even come close to a G37's. From a dig I get abused and from a roll I keep up until 100... Barely and then my CVT dies and the G starts leaving me by 5 if not 6 cars...
This is why I'm getting a G37x or wait ou t until the new G sedan will come out.
