It almost looks as if the Altima is having to slow down because of traffic? They looked fairly even for awhile, what do you guys think?

Have to consider the Altima is stock and has what looks to be a crappy driver, no wonder it lost.

well....they say it was a 3.5 coupe, and that the GTI only had exhaust and intake...but a good exhaust on a turbo can make a world of difference when the turbo back is done, and with a manual vs. a CVT, i feel like this is an expected outcome.
