I have a 1985 300ZX normally aspirated with intake exhaust and an electric fan replacing the clutch fan.. I believe the webmaster has seen my car. Well i ran at the strip tonight at sunshine.. I am amazed.. I bested a 1990 300ZX non turbo 2 seater five speed a 1999 civic si with aem cold air intake and tanabe racing medallion exhaust a sohc vtec powered crx a 98 se-r a 92 se-r a camaro v8 some 80s model an older mustang and only lost to one car the whole time. a 1991 CRX with a b18c1 motor that has a jackson racing supercharger on it.. and I lost to him by 2 cars at the end of the 1/8.. the track sucked because it sprinkled tonight and i could not get below 10.3 =( the previous times i would run i would have 10.150 @ 69.8 mph. 10.3 @ 67 was my highest but I believe my dragging warped brakes and smelly burned clutch has a little bit to do with it. Overall a great turnout. those tamparacing.com stickers on my rear triangle windows have to have somehting to do with it !! =)

Those are pretty good times considering how heavy your car is. It would be a good race betwwen you and my Cavy. The Cavy did a 10.2. I havent tested it yet with the throttle body yet. Maybe a 10.1.
