Actually, after reading SCC's article on the G35C I'm very impressed with it. It does much better than the 350Z. It still can't keep up with the Spyder in the twisties though.

Highlander, if you want to have some fun and give it a try, you should come to the Dragon in October for our fall run. You should be past the break-in period by then and I would love to see how the G35 would do on some killer twisties.

We should have several people coming from your area.
