Default 98 Z28 vs 6cyl stang

So last night I went to the local 1/8 dragstip. I looked over in the staging lanes and saw this 2000 mustang. It had prostars with slicks, skinny's up front, gutted interior, no spoiler, engine compartment gutted, and it was trailered in. So I ran him and he beat me by 2 cars, I found out it was a stock 6cyl with 185 SHOT OF JUICE....I told him nice run but lets run motor for motor.....He said "naw man thats ok".....I'll get him another day....

An *** whooping like that will get you modifying your car quick! Nitrous or no nitrous, that's flat out embarrassing.

Good run. There are some fast V6's out there contrary to what a lot of people believe.

Yeah. Just needs a decent tune and the 3.8 and 4.0 are pretty much bullet proof.
