'98 I-30 wants to go!

My friend drives a '98 Infinity I-30 and I have been giving him shit that he is driving a chick car. He now wants to race me next friday (I think its going to be stoplight racing). Do you think I can take him? I know they only have 227hp, but I heard the Nissan/Infinity engines are very torquey and have good low end power, whereas I need to hit higher revs to really get goin.

Is he stock? If so, it'll be like taking candy from a baby.

If he's stock you will be able to take him at a stoplight race.
