if he's only pulling a 16.4 in a 98 5-speed Maxima he can't drive worth sh*t! If you get traction you might take him..it'll be close though

Hmmm, I don't really think it would be a hands down win for you. Maxima's can be annoyingly fast for a four door, front wheel drive.
The open air element is a good place to start, but make sure the car is in good tune (cap, rotor, wires, timing, fuel system) as extra insurance.
