Damn that was pretty tight!
I saw somethin similar, I think it was on Ripley's Believe it or Not.
They made a Viper race a F40 Fighter Jet....in the 1/4 mile or the mile. At a complete stop....even take off and everything, the Viper did lose but by less than a second. Even tho the Viper lost...I was like "DAIM"....a jet to a fawkin car....
So to the 350Z and to the Viper..

Holy crap.... can we say GIANT custom turbo? I didn't think anyone would have their Z running 9's already.... much less modified with a roll cage and God knows what else?

Yeah, a Corvette will beat a jet off the line beause it takes a second for the turbines to get up to speed, but try racing a jet sling-shoted off a carrier.... vette has no chance in hell.

That 350Z is racing a Cessna 152. I give flight lessons in those airplane all the time. They have 160hp 4 cyl. (That's like the Geo metro of airplanes) His approch speed was probably 55 knots = 65-70 mph and once got the the 350Z he went full throttle. They cessa probably got up to 100 mph max. But That was a cool video

I don't think the Cessna was racing the Z, I think it was just taking video of it? I don't understand the racing planes and cars, totally different. Cessnas aren't that fast anyway.

I took a few lessons in Cessnas.... in Portland, ME... lots of fun,, definatly not fast though.

When I buy a house, I am building a racetrack in the backyard, and an airstrip for the ultralights I will have.

ah, so my memory was correct. I thought I rememberd the cessna could hold altitude even at a measly 65mph.

They can... They can go as low as 35 knots (aprox 40-45 mph) but the airplane is very unstable and little hard to control. If the airplane were to pitch up and slow down anymore it would cause a stall, which is easy to recover. We just wouldn't do it at a low altitude.
