I wouldn't bother risking your 40th anniversary Z if you don't have track experience. I mean, I had my 2000 Toyota Celica GT-S run around in circles on technical courses on Audi's, BMWs, and Zs when I had it. It was only 200hp with 9300RPM rev, but weights about 2400lbs.

I also recently auto-X my Z. In stock form, it's quite a contender, but you really need to know its limitations first or else you'll be a bigger loser if both of you wreck your cars.

Yea if I decide to take him on I might just do a straight line to test it out and leave the race around the track for another day.
