You do realize that the 280zx only had 2 notable accomplishments, right?
1979 SCCA C Production Category (Bob Sharp Racing 280ZX)
1979 and 1980 IMSA GTU Championship (Electramotive Datsun 280ZX)
In 1981, Bob Sharp Racing team used a loophole in the IMSA GTO rules to build a Datsun 280ZX inside the U.S. with a V8 engine from a Nissan President. This car was not a success and became obsolete when the new GTP category was created.
Nissan stayed in GTP for years, and did well in 1988 at least, nut by them it was the 300ZX Turbo.
After the RX7 came on the scene, Nissan faded from being competitive in IMSA, as the RX7 went on to win its class in the IMSA 24 Hours of Daytona race ten years in a row, starting in 1982, and won the IMSA GTU championship each year from 1980 through 1987. The RX7 went on to win more IMSA races in its class than any other model of automobile, with its one hundredth victory on September 2, 1990. Nissan couldn't compete.
Here are the results from IMSA GTU races: http://www.racingsportscars.com/cham...MSA%20GTU.html

The R32 GT-R dominated Japanese Touring Car Championship (JTCC), winning 29 races from 29 starts, taking the series title every year from 1989 to 1993.[18] It took 50 races from 50 starts from 1991 to 1997 (latterly R33) in the N1 Super Taikyu.
The R32 GT-R was introduced in to the Australian Touring Car Championship in 1990 and promptly ended the reign of the previously all-conquering Ford Sierra Cosworth, winning Bathurst 1000 classic in 1991 and 1992. This success led to the Australian motoring press nicknaming the car Godzilla due to it being a "monster from Japan". As Australia was the first export market for the car the name quickly spread. Such was GT-R's dominance that it was a significant factor in the demise of Group A Touring Car racing, the formula being scrapped soon after. JTCC was similarly blighted by the R32 GT-R, and splintered soon after, leading to the switch to the Supertouring category and also indirectly to the GT500 category of today.
LMFAO...WTF?
The Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR is a grand tourer and race car that was built by Mercedes-AMG, performance and motorsports arm of Mercedes-Benz. Intended for racing in the new FIA GT Championship series in 1997, the CLK GTR was designed primarily as a race car, with the road cars necessary in order to meet homologation standards being secondary in the car's design. Thus the limited production road-going cars were considered racing cars for the road.
After competing successfully in 1997, the race car was upgraded in 1998 for the 24 Hours of Le Mans and renamed the CLK LM. Following the construction of the CLK LMs and the CLK GTR road cars, the project would end in 1999 by being replaced by the Mercedes-Benz CLR Le Mans prototype.
A) The R32 is not a Neon, 240, or 280ZX.
B) Georgia always wins the cocktail party, but they have had issues with the game afterward. Doesn't ruin my day, though.
C) No, that is not me. I don't have a sweet goatee or croakies.
UGA: Everybody is laughing at us this year.
To me the 280z was the best chassis (with a few changes like a 240z doors and such) the weight in that car was all for additional chassis rigidity and EFI, the 280zx took it too far with superfluous things done here and there that for no reason needed to be strengthened.
I was playing your immature game, you give fat jokes I give yo mama jokes. There is no "doing good" at arguing on the internet. The sad part is you still use fat and post count jokes, you have nothing to say other than typical middle school lingo, you don't know anything about cars, why are you still here?
OH SNAP!!! Shit just got real!!!! Pic off!!!!!!!!!!
