Then if everyone did that the whole place would run smoother and better. I hope you have seen the flaw in your plans.

Stock for stock, Maxima takes the 240 by quite a few carlenghts. But a turbo 240 will take out a Supercharged Maxima. There were a few videos of them racing on that Supra Video site.

not always. I know a guy down here with a turbo 240sx. Actually it's the same guy I raced in the link I posted above. I used to walk him, now he will kick my a$$. But he still only runs about 14.0...

They may be slow, but they sure are wayy more fun to drive than a Maxima.

The Maxima is a boat compared to the 240sx which has some tight steering and handling..and hte chassis is so rigid.
