the 94 240sx is almost 200 pounds lighter than the 4th gen maxima and is RWD but its power is not up to ours (only like 155 hp and just about the same in torque compared to our 190 hp and 205 torque.) that difference in power is enough to make me believe that we can beat them if not give them a great race...i wouldn't be scared of them....not at all

They are slow cars. Handle GREAT but slow. Mom had one and I drove it a lot. E Brake rubs into your right thigh... I digress. There is just no torque to get the darn thing going. It takes FOREVER to hit its 117 speed limiter. Whereas my Max hits hit and you fall forward in your seat.
