Stock for stock theyre pretty close and would probably come down to a drivers race. The mach might have a slight advantage due to the higher redline. The WS6 redlines at 6k.

If hes modded you will probably lose, howbad depends on how much hes modded.Those cars respond as well or betterto mods as the 4v 4.6's do.

Stock for stock id say you would lose. I know most people on this site say its a drivers race between a mah and a LS1 fbod, but at the track mach's usually run around a 13.7-8 and LS1's around a 13.3-4. On the street thats pretty close though. If he's also modded then i dont think youv got a very good chance.

If hes auto, and your stick - youll own him - esp from rolls. If hes a stick your toast. get a 4.10 and up the odds Also - from a dig if you hit it right you should/could win - at the very least not get burnt.

Racing against a slighty modifed car is the best thing!

If you win then it's extra icing on the cake!

If you lose,, well,, "hey what do you expect buddy, my car is stock"

I ran a stock 03 mach a few days ago. From a dig up to about 75 we were almost dead even. The only time one of us would pull on the other was shifting.I shifted a little faster on second and gained a few feet, he was faster on third and made up the distance. So i think it comes down to whois quicker off the line and which driver can shift better.
