Default Me vs Him!

There is a guy driving around here with a 94 mustang gt manual, with some crap exhaust, cold air, and underdrives, I have a 95 mustang GT Auto,with headers, exhaust, of road h pipe. Who would win the race, all my friends say he is a crappy driver when he races. And i know i will get traction because my tires are like slick and they are 275's. Let me know what you all think.. Thanks Brad

if your tranny is stock then you could possibly loose this race. your tires dont mean squat. unless you got some stickies or a good suspension your not hooking. it be a close race

You can mess up driving an Automatic trans, short short, late shift, too much stall, too little

He may get you if your aod/e is stock, but i'd race him. Maybe he'll be scared a just drop the clutch and spin, sure win then

Never let the looks or sound of a car fool you. My car is ugly and sounds awful, but let me you tell ya its fast. Good luck on the race and repost with a win.
