Message for stating an unpopular OPINION, I will take the same chance and question why in the hell does everyone talk about straight-line drag racing with these cars. Blast me if you will for I have an N/A and I know this forum is becoming decreasingly tolerant for us as days go by. It seems that this latest unmentioned movie has had alot to do with it, at least I hope so, I hope our normal members wouldn't be a part of this NA wise guy thing that was posted previously by a member and that some folks would be more than happy for us NA guys to have our own separate place to talk. The supra guys always give us shit about how we talk about "heritage", they laugh and say that's all we have. Sometimes that IS all we have when we're next to a 6 or 700 hp supra. You guys totally lost the "upper-hand" by dogging other Z owners because our's aren't as fast as yours. This TT ellitest(sp?) thing for the Z has gotten confused, you twinturbo guys don't have any right to talk about our heritage, most of you have no clue as to what a good looking 240 is, not SX...but a Z. I went off on a tangent here from that earlier post that in my mind, seemed to divide us, I am an active member of the National Auto Sport Assoc. as well as SCCA and I took my car...yes...my shitty NA on the new road course at the Nashville Superspeedway and had a great time. There was only one other Z-32 there which happened to be a guy in our club that's got a great looking TT but it's got a supra wing:( and we stuck together around the course for awhile along with some old 914 racers, old RX-7 guys, even a guy in this bad ass 70ish 911 that had the widest damn tires you'd ever seen on a car. I will give you turbo guys this and only this.....if you're a novice driver on a road course, you might have your hands full with an equal NA driver, I only say this from experience, this TT that I was on the track with, this guy has done Barbers school and he was good but I think he had brake problems...(who hasn't)hehe! I've gone through Panoz's and in the S's and chicanes I was there....in the straights, he was there, but my ugly ass sloppy slow dickish NA was on his bumper the whole time. I guess my point would be that as many times as it's been talked about...this isn't a drag racer as so many of you try to make it (it'll never be a good one) drive the damn thing like the Cray designed it to be driven-----Lane/Nashville
