Guest bastaad525 Posted July 23, 2004 Share Posted July 23, 2004 Finally took the Sentra ('91 SE-R) out for some fun... man the thing does handle pretty friggin nice. Blasted up and down the Sepulveda pass... nice curvy up/down hill four lane (well most of it is four lanes)... usually with little to no traffic (as was the case last night). Was a real blast, the car was really well stuck, a very confidence-inspiring car, and this was with stock worn suspension (way soft in the rear). But it didn't even once threaten to step out on me going some 30mph over the posted speed limit thru some nice twisties. Except for the few times I reached for the E-brake SO nice having an E-brake that can actually LOCK the damn tires.... On my way down had a nice little run in with a newish mustang convertible.... Very surpising to me that this guy starts to get on it rolling away from the light... like dude wtf you're trying to race me in a Sentra but I can't resist so I get on it as well and actually kept up with him and started to inch past him ever so slowly after about 70mph and he let off. So I rolled down my window and told the guy "dude for your sake I HOPE that is a V6" heheh well it was, of course I was still a little shocked... I know those V6's have something close to 200hp, 60hp over the Sentra, but I figure he must have been a lot heavier (I DID have my wife in the car though) and I'm guessing he had a automatic as well. Still... was a nice ego booster for me with what I consider to be a damn slow car and boy have I REALLY lost respect for Mustang V-6's now!!
