True. As I said, I used to run with them in my S13. An F430 Challenge has roughly 400HP stock. Even if it is twin supercharged, a twin turbo Z should be on par. Against a stock (or what looked to be stock) F360 Challenge, my 310-ish WHP S13 Fastback did quite well. My S13 was far from stock, but was still just on par with the Ferrari.

I would think that a Z with F/I (and supporting mods), suspension upgrades, and a decent driver would hang with or beat a supercar. I have seen a lot of folks with supercars that have no skills at all or even basic car knowledge. I think it would be interesting to link up with an individual with said supercar (and decent driving skills) and see where the cards fall.........That may be my next project after TT installation
