300ZX killed by SUV
I was out tonight looking for Mustang GTs and Lightnings to race,when a kid in 300ZX nails the throttle next to me at a stop sign.The Tahoe caught him almost instantly,I had him by about 10 truck lengths when I let off about 80mph.I pull into a lot to turn around and he follows.He says man what's in that thing,you got NOS in it.The Fast and Furious wantabe just could'nt believe a Tahoe could beat him so bad without NOS.To many movies for that guy.I think he had visions of me being pinned to the seat at the touch of a button.

5.3 with Radix intercooled Magnacharger,ASM headers,1.85 rockerarms and a built transmission.My last track time was 13.28 and 101mph,but I've added 3# more boost since that run.

Re: 300ZX killed by SUV
by the way you embarrased this guy, I'm guessing his car was normally asperated. Good kill. Sounds like the perfect sleeper. What kind of milage does it get cruising on the interstate?
BTW I had a 87 T type limited with a baby blue vinyl top and craigers (total sleeper) that lulled a modded 300Z TT to its demise, fun to surprise them!

I get about 18mpg at 70mph,about 11mpg at 100mph and average about 14mpg around town,it's a daily driver.I'm the one usually looking to race,my most recent kills are a red Lightning,a black Bullet Mustang,a blue M3,a silver M5 and a Harley V-Rod.The guy in the 300ZX caught me by surprise,normally I would'nt have looked to race him.
