I think he watched too much of The Fast and The Furious movie.

They are pretty fast so I would watch out. But like the above poster mentioned...too much f&f.

i would think you might be able to pull one from a roll. i dunno. they are fast, but so rare that i have never encounter a VR4 that wanted to go. 99% in my area are the SL models, and they are so slow that a mini van might beat one!

If he wanted to race for cash then there is a good chance his car wasn't stock.

Do people actually work for a living?

If it's a regular 3000GT with 222hp, you'll murder him, but I suspect he's got something more if he was willing to stop on the side of the road to pick a race with a random S2000. Could be a VR-4 and it's not hard to get 400+ hp out of them. As said before, they are rare these days. Most of them are in the junk yard. They weren't the most reliable cars out there with loads of tranny and electrical problems and lots of people blow them up trying to mod them.

Yes it was probably a VR-4. I used to have a Stealth TT (basically the same car) and from a roll you should have no problem pulling on it. From a stop depends on how good you can launch but I wouldn't recommend running him from a stop for money.
