Re: Will i smoke his a$$

im going out on a limb on this one so ill say maybe. it should be a drivers race. (+/-)150hp on slightly lighter car vs. 305hp on the camaro.

Re: Will i smoke his a$$

Is that a serious question?

If so, agree to whatever rules he says. Don't go full throttle the first race, just toy with him and win by a fender. Second race, start out next to him, and then just floor it.

BTW the faster you go the worse it's going to be for him, not you (regardless of transmission), it's a simple matter of horsepower vs. aerodynamic drag.

If you guys are both really wondering who's car is faster then you really need to get this overwith.

I have beaten a new 06 mustang v6 with my 94 formula lt1....you use only about 3/4 throttle and still kill him horribly.

First off Daniel,

Its called a Mustang. I cant tell whether you are just poking fun or......
Wait a minute, you misspelled every other word in the paragraph so I take it you actually meant Mustang and just cant spell.

Secondly,
Your friend is out of his mind for even thinking that way. You ought to know that your car is much faster without having to be told so by strangers on a public forum.

Are you quoting the factory rating, or did someone steal some spark plugs from the LS1?

Re: Will i smoke his a$$

Unless the Mustang has a Buick GN V6, you should be OK...I have seen them in Mustangs..At first I was kinda joking, but you may want to ask to see the motor, first...
