Default 35anv ss vs

I have a friend with a 2012 mustang 5.0 6 speed. His only mods are axle back and ect tune. My car is a 35 anv ss Camaro vert.with slp lid,kooks 1/3/4 headers, moser 12 bolt, yank ss 4000 stall, and magnaflow Catback. What should the outcome of this race be given a track or on the street. ? I also have Mickey Ts drag radials.

This was a great race but the OP needs to figure out how to get out of the hole more fluidly. Bogging the launch almost cost you the race.

I thought you were supposed to launch in 2nd gear??? That way you won't ever spin!

what you do is roll backwards first, so your car launches hard forward, and you get a nice head start... ya know, kinda like a spring

I also like to run slicks up front and skinnies in the rear. The slicks up front intimidate the pavement forcing it to lay flatter out of fear.
