well i got my first kill. I have been getting crap for the last two months from my moms boyfriend. He bought a 65 ford fairlane in the winter. It has a 289 and its a automatic. He got the rust fixed and painted and just put on a new carb last night. With a little adjustments and the timing set, it actually sounded pretty good. now since i told him that i was going to by a datsun, he would not stop bugging me. he wanted to race because he was sure that he was faster. i new i would win but he would not believe me. i tried to tell him that my new car would be lighter, so there for would win. he scoffed, and said that he had a v8, and that was all he needed. so we got home from work and we were working on our cars. my mom came home and wanted to go for a spin. i thought it would be a perfect time to race. we went out to a secluded street nearby and made sure that there was no traffic. he pulls beside me....i stick my three fingers in the air...and bring them down one at a time ....he punches it and i pop the clutch. he actually got a better start than me and was a half a car ahead of me when the car stopped sliding sideways and the wheels caught some traction. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzoooooommmm.

i lost him very quickly, by the end of the street he was way back.

it was very sweet. i have the faster car and a case of beer for winning. tonight i drink to the datsun 240z.

well done ! :classic:

that's one more ignorant fool brought to their senses about these cars

Hooray for the Z!

Funnily enough, my mate in his ford falcon stationwagon said he would kick my arse (in the 2+2)..I told him otherwise, because although he has an engine 1.5 litres bigger, doesn't mean my 5 speed and L26 would get beaten...anyway, I kicked his arse, scared the $^!# out of my when I saw blue and red ahead and found out that they were just checking a possible burglary...I was 4 lengths ahead and doing 120km!!! Scary $^!#!

Cheers ppl, love you all!!
