Default Stock Mach 1

My buddy says that he will run circles around me all day. He has a stock (not even an intake/filter) STOCK 03 Mach 1. He wants to run after i get my H/C installed. Hes says he beat cammed ls1's before and hell do it again. I know NOTHING about stangs. Look at my sig, under the bottom for what I will have when I am done next week. Will I have a problem??

I raced my buddies 03 Mach when we were both bone stock on street tires at the track. He ran a 9 flat and I was an 8.7 in the 8th mile. You should have no problems stock much less with a H/C setup.

Wow, seems a bit one sided. hehe Ok, then I guess its appropriate that I just bought a lisense plate frame from here, that says I pimp slap mustangs.

Just make sure you pratice launching with the extra power if you go from a dig so you don't spin madly, even then you'll still beat him though. They are a handful for stock ls1s, but with your mods it shouldn't even be a contest unless he's lying about not having anything.

No, I KNOW he doesnt have anything. It took him putting that thing in the dirt before he would buy new tires. He dumps it all into his Harley. Hes a friend, but still a trash talker. Ive done more mods to his car than he has. I painted his calipers for him.

Haha, it is never a waste of time putting a cocky driver in their place, especially when that driver happens to own a stang .

i don't know, my friend just bought an automatic 03 mach 1, and i was worried about running him, but my other friend with his z28 put 2 cars on him from a dig, and i got his z28 by a 1/4 panel, all i got is a m6 with lid, but i haven't ran the mach 1 yet
