I drove Ted's old car when Tal had it. I remember it being a stripper
'89 (like my 89 and Tal's black 89). I've had my 89 on 3 different scales,
in fact on the same scale at the drags when Tal had his '89 on the scale. I
had just put in the 3.2L, car/interior was still stock. Both mine and Tal's
were within just a few lbs on the scale (we both weigh about the same) 3330
or so for both cars, driver, and a 1/4 tank of gas. I've never met Ted,
maybe he's a big guy :)

wheels at 7500-7600rpm.
270 @ the wheels is around 325-330 hp at the crank. Which in a 3350 lb ride
works out about 107 in the traps in a perfect world, so the numbers at least
match up.
