Can my son improve his chemistry grade?

Can my son improve his chemistry grade?
So my 16-year-old son gets a crazy-hard chemistry test that nobody in the class passes. The teacher says he would give a passing grade to anyone who could beat him "in a straight-line race." We're going to assume he meant a quarter mile. My son doesn't know how serious the teacher is, but he'd like to call his bluff. The teacher's car is a 2005 Mustang GT auto, bone stock. My son has a 1994 T/A LT1 M6 with a Borla cat-back (but stock exhaust manifolds), a K&N FIPK and a BBK 52mm throttle body. My son's car runs very strong.

how long does he have till this extra credit assignment?
i would say grab a tick master cylinder, ditch the back seats, jack tire, floor mats, any junk in the glove box/console etc. does your son have street tires? stock clutch? might wanna consider a slightly better clutch and nittos too.

I don't think it will be easy at all. The cars should be very close, and it's only assumed that the teacher is telling the truth about his car being stock. He could easily have something like a K&N/stall/tune. Which would make it an easy win for the teacher.

as awesome as that would be...i'm leaning towards no. the last thing that should come out of this is a scandal about a street racing teacher.
i say dads DR's and a diet is about all that can be done.

My prediction was based on info given...if the GT is stock and the kid can drive his car then I think he should be able to get the win.
Won't blow him away, but should definitely have the slight edge IMO.
