In-car footage! Take a ride with legendary driver John Morton as he races the BRE Datsun 240z at the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.
John finished the race as the fastest Z car in the field! 8th overall out of 52 cars with a best lap time of 1:41.8. 
Owner: Randy Jaffe

Didn't know Bob Sharp did a Custom Z back in the day. Looks to be mainly cosmetic from the video but it doesn't list specs.

I kind of like it, but the front turns me off it.......the headlight buckets look too far apart now and the front end looks too wide for the body.

did the hood just fall when he started the car, or was "remote" close?

amazing amount of work! 

@ 8:14 - Laser Jammer!!! 

@ 8:40 - the exhaust crossflow/X - for those in the know, would this not create bad turbulence?

I like the gearbox oil filler next to the gearstick - as long as you are careful not to spill any!

It's funny because if that car is genuine 10,000 mile car and never been in a front-end hit, the headlight bucket alignment with the hood is less than perfect. Which makes me feel a bit better about struggling to get mine perfect.

Yanks tend to add a lot of salt, pepper and sauces to their food and stories.

Not an S30Z, but at least it's still an L-GATA engine.
