Hate to say it, but he's probably got you. The 350Z only weighs about 3150# where you're 2000 S281 is probably more than 3400#. If his Z is anywhere around the HP that I've seen published for the Z, his HP/weight ratio is better than the S281. It wouldn't be a blowout though. It would be a tight race with professional drivers in each car, so if you can out-drive him you might be able to take the checkered.

Only way to know for sure is to take them to the TRACK. Let us know how it turns out.
