I dont think he will win. I would say my car has all the boltons except gears and I test drove a Mach 1 with 29K miles on it and it was bone stock down to the air filter. The salesman told me to get down on it "so I would know what I was buying" LOL. It was an auto like mine and mine chirps into second gear but NOTHING like this one. It had 3:55's from the factory which is more than mine so my vote goes for the mach 1!

And lose those 18's, then maybe its a drivers race, from a dig to 100mph. After 100mph my vote to the mach, they have good top end!!!!

i dont think 18's would make a HUGE difference? have 17 inch Mach 1's and i dont think another inch is gonna do too much.....my mach 1's and my stock bullits are HEAVY, a guy i kno has 18" saleens and they dont seem as heavy....speed, pretaining to wheels, comes down to the rotating mass right? this isnt my best area of knowledge
