Is he sure that the Lude and Camaro were even racing with him?? Parked cars perhaps.

race a 91 - 93 240 and see if your jimmy can keep up... with a good driver...

a friend of mine has a 93 240sx... they aren't that quick! I took a 91 240 in my old car - a 90 Z24!! So that comment doesn't mean a whole lot, unless of course they have the SR swap... then it's a different story.

93 240sx has 165 Hp - 167 tq (rough numbers)

Ya stock 240's are slow for sure, the hatch backs (s13's) are a little faster than the 95-98 (s14's). I pulled 17.3 at race city 100% stock with a broken muffler.

Not sure race city would not let me race, I have my battery in my trunk due to IC piping and to get me my 50/50 weight distribution. Stock is 53/47. Needed a external master battery kill switch. Also I had some personal things going on that made racing meaningless at the time. Completed the project late Aug.
