how fast is an 04 mach 1???
There is this kid in one of my classes who just bought an 04' Mach 1 about 1 or 2 weeks ago. Anyways he seems pretty cocky when he leaves the parking lot and I just know that one of these days we will be lining up next to each other so I was wondering just what do you guys think would happen from either a dig or a roll?
The Mach 1 is brand new and bone stock. It is an automatic.
My car is a 98 Z28 M6. Check out my website to see the car and I have written down all the mods in the first paragraph of the webpage. Here is the link to the page. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/414383

Mach 1s are pretty fast. It's usually a drivers race. Might want some more mods before being cocky to him just in case but if you drive good enough it should be a close one. Is his a manuel or an auto?

I forgot to mention that on last friday we were both leaving the parking lot at the same time he was behind me as I was turning out of the parking lot and on to a road that was quiet and no traffic so I punched it in 1st, spun the tires on purpose right in front of him and then I got to about 60mph and looked in my rear view and he didn't even try. And then instead of following me he turned off onto a side street. So maybe now he's not going to be so cocky?? Well see, and I'll let you know if we ever do race.

hey dude! I was just reading about the mach 1 today in a motortrend magasine. It has the 03 version, but im guessing its the same as the 04.
0-60 MPH = 4.7
1/4 mile= 13.20 @ 106.70
Add a vortech in there and you got
0-60 MPH = 3.8
1.4 mile = 11.96 @ 121.16
So dont worry you should easily get him. If he puts a vortech, watch out hehe.

A Mach1 auto is a high 13 second car that traps around 102-104.
If you can drive........you'll take him....from a roll or dig.
I raced my friends 03 Mach1 MTX and I beat him every time...and that was before headers! He isn't that good of a driver....but I gave him the jump everytime.

Automatic Mach 1s are slow as dirt. High 13s @ 100-103mph. You should kill him pretty easily. Careful though, the manuals are no joke for a near-stock LS1. They'll give you a good run.
