That stock mazda 3 is turbo charged and produces almost identical hp, plus it weighs 700lbs less. I said speed3, it's a new model for 07. I just got beat by a mitzubishi evolution, not sure if it was stock, but it matters not because the car produces identical times as the mustang gt. My poor shifting is to blame.

Menace, keep in mind that a FWD car transfers its weight off the drive wheels when it takes off. That's bad for launching. That's why RWD guys relocate batteries to the rear; to put even more weight on the rear tires for more traction during the launch.

Well Freakin' said i must say. . . u know your physics and i agree 100%, real drag racers know this. . . :-)
