Default another "who will win" question

i've done nothing to my car (2002 v6 3.8L 5speed stang) nor has my friend done anything to his police intersepter (?year? v8 4.6L auto). my $$ on his car, unless we're doing back roads, crazy turns, cause his rides kinda high, and mine is freak'n low. i think the previous owner of my car had it lowered.

anyway, just throwing it out there.

your friend has a more powerful engine than you, so if its all stock, he has a very good shot of beating. But you could have a shot, the the fact your driving a manual and he is driving an auto. Maybe you can outshift him and be the better driver?

e police interceptor is just a stock engine with a tune that removes the top speed limiter and adds 5hp.
so, youre talking about a full weight crown vic, stock+ 5hp, vs a v6.
Ive heard yalls v6's are pretty stout being stock.
BUt I do know that the campus police at the college in my town wont even chase after me in my GT...hahaha.
(i know a few personally, and they told me some coworkers told them about busting a U behind my car, only to see it disappear )

He'll be out of sight before the first turn. You're screwed.
