Clash of the Titans

Well this sounds pretty crazy for a small town, but friends and friends of friends have been putting the word out that I've wanted to race some of the local "rice" and this is the lineup that has been rounded up to give me a run in a few weeks.

I'm 2002 WS6 - 315 nitto streets, headers, exhuast, intake and tune (330hp & 345ftlb aprox)
Challengers are:
Year unknown (mid 90s) Mazda RX-7, manual, twin turbo - supposedly all stock
Year unknown (mid 90s) Nissan 300zx, manual, twin turbo - quote "big time" exhuast system and some form of intake
Year unknown (mid 90s-200x?) Nissan Skyline, details unknown but supposedly all stock except intake and "highest model level available"
All three are Japanese imports with the wheel on the wrong side, and all the drivers are 18-21.
Lastly there is a 2006-2008? Mustang Shelby Stage 3

I think it should be a good couple of runs, and if they are no more modified than they claim I should come out ahead...except maybe the Stage 3 mustang, if he can drive he Should take me, but I'm hopeful he can't handle what he's got.
Any thoughts?

A 200sx isnt a skyline AT ALL.

The rx-7 is a 14 second car stock.
The 300zx i need to know the mods, your description is vague, they can make 350whp with bolt ons and a tune.

he meant its a 90-2000 something skyline I believe.
RX-7-you win
300ZX-close but depends on his mods
Skyline-heard they're fast so probably a drivers race.
Shelby-Drivers race again
Their only rice if they have no performance mods and stolen park benches on their trunks tho.

IC, well the skyline if it is truely stock isnt that fast. Mid to high 13 second car stock if its the AWD version.

Haha, I guess we will see soon enough. I'm hoping to get some pics and videos when we run....not sure how its going to happen, I haven't actually met any of them, I'm just getting set up through friends and acquaintences who are being the go betweens. Though I have seen the 300zx driving around, its loud as hell and sounds like shit.
If we hit the old abandoned highway chances are there won't be any evidence, if I can get them all to make the 3 hour drive to the nearest real drag strip I'll video all the runs.
