I had 72 240z with triple Weber’s and a 71 510 years ago. What I would give to have them both back. Used to take the 510 to Summit Point for races. Would have loved to take the 240Z for a few laps, but it didn’t have a roll cage.

Loved my '70 510, my second car; I could dump the clutch and smoke the tires (Michelin ZXW IIRC). During the oil embargo -- I wanna say around '75, yeah, I'm old -- I was going to school in Northern Iowa, driving from NC Illinois. Was getting 35+ mpg but the feds were "recommending" driving 55 mph on the interstates, and troopers were even stopping cars just to get the point across. I did my usual 70 or so and got stopped multiple times, but the troopers just shook their heads and told me to carry on once I filled them in on the mpg.

My cousin in ND had a two-seater roadster, a Datsun 2000, that she let me drive a little while during a visit. That was a fun car, too!

( 240's)...... We had at the Bondurant school, about 30 240's.... Some 2000's... A couple years later Datsun gave us a couple 260Z Turbos..... For school cars on a track with all turns, the car didn't work out.

The turbos kicked in then the car would try to spin out.

When we went to Ford...... They created the school car at the track.... Creating what was called the SVO Mustang.....

Sadly, 25 of the 240Z's were crushed..... No VIN numbers..... Sad.....
