yea but im still taking into consideration my 2600lbs to their 3300lbs.... thats a very very big difference..... i might get beat on top end but ill def pull away on the low side i think......... plus there is roughly 15% loss of HP through the drivetrain so 199.5 hp at the wheels on a "perfect" day.... vs. my whopping 130hp at the crank which translates to what....? 119hp at the wheels.... plus CAI, SRT rear section, a midpipe with no resonators from the cat back..... Race MM inserts... im prolly lucky if i get 125hp to the ground.... lol the 2.24 final drive gear ratio the mustang has def. wont help me win ... but the 700lbs of weight difference work to my favor.... what is it 100lbs of weight is equivalent to.... is it 5 or 10 hp? i forget anyways i think it could be close from a roll....? idk.... we'll find out i guess hehe
With those mods you are probably making 120whp...MAYBE that. I'm pretty sure the stangs have decent tire width in the back too...better launch for him.

unless you have done some serious weight reduction you are heavier than 2600lbs. I removed sound damponing material under the rug, back seat (upper and lower), passenger seat, spare tire, jack, trunk rug, and drivers side headlight and weighed 2707 with my 150 lb *** in the car. Only had a 1/4 tank of gas too.

as you mentioned though, you never know until you do it. The stang driver could be a really bad driver.

i taken on a 96 V-6 from a dead stop and a 00 V-6
ORIGINAL: Mat00ES

I took a 94-95 v6 stang at a like 40 mph roll. He had a fartcan, assload of gauges, and a shiftlight I could see from car lenghts back. Theres only one way to truely tell, run em'.

Mat
lol, of course the possibility is greater with the **** boxes you guys are talking about. You guys are comparing the 150hp/170tq 3.8l V6 to the 210hp/240tq 4.0l V6. They are far from the same car... very far!
damn graphite way to put me down

You will more than likely loose unless he can't drive. Either way let us know how the race went.

That's kind of unfair, your have a modded car and your going against a stocked car. That's B.S I think your scared of going against a mustang v6with a few mods!!! Now if yourgoing againsta ford focus SVT. Then you'll have a real race then!!!!
