well, it's true and false at the same time. you can't buy a 240sx take it to the track and expect to do good, get mad because for some reason you're running 16. then buy intake exhaust and header, go to the track and be 2x as mad because you spent 1500 and running 15's. it would be safe to say a 240sx is not a good drag racing car.
but then are people like duy and others <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'> if you put a lot of work into it, the 240sx goes from being a bad drag car, to your average drag car, to an actually good drag car, when a lot of other imports simply go from bad to average.
