Are u running a stock GS??? If so i think he'll win, if he doesn't mess up shifting. Good luck on the race if u do race him!

You would beat him.. If his car was a SL stick however you'd have a hard time... I used to have a 3000GT SL 5-spd and I got a trap time of 15.1 seconds @ 91mph. Magazines back then rated the 3000GT SL in 5-spd at a mid 6 second 0-60. They're not really slow cars, faster than an IS300 stick and definately faster than a GS300... base models however have about 50-60 fewer HP and are very slow...

GS300 would win!
My dad has a 3000 gt 5speed and the best time @ the track I got was 15.5 @89.9mph I think you would win or tie......Go smoke the Kat! The stock VR-4 runs 14.6 in the 1/4.

VR4 is fast, if we are talking about 96+, I have raced 1 once, dead close but he beats me by 1 car length at the end, I have Torque converter too = P. I think his is modded tho, not sure.
the stock time for a VR4 is around low 5. pretty fast car.
