If you're gonna race, do it from a roll. If he can launch his car hard and hook, he might be able to take you.

In any case, no way of knowing until you race. Don't worry about losing. At the end of the day you're still driving home a car that you like.

LMAO at the over confidence in this thread. You better roll race, think he gets you from a dig to at least 120 or so.

Can't wait to see the videos!

No crappy cell phone videos, dammit!

And it looks like your buddy has kept the ram air from sun fading

Lots of Mach 1's around here with light gray ram airs lol

Don't get caught!

I've even pulled on a GT500 in stock form thru 1st but got past a few seconds after I shifted into 2nd at about 60ish... Im guessing traction issues or bad driver...

Cmon OP we want to know what happened.
