Default Who wins in a race 0-120mph?

Who wins in a race from a dig, 0mph to 120mph?

I'd like to hear your reasoning as well. Assume the best Evo driver in the world is in the Evo, and the best Mustang GT driver in the world is in the Mustang.

An Evo 9 will run about a 13.5 1/4. My friend has one and they die out above 100. So I would say the newer ones run about a 13. So we would probably be down 3 car lengths at 100 and pull to 2 to 1 1/2 car lengths by 120. With a CAI the mustang would win.

I recently ran my friends evo 9 and he didnt start pulling on me until 130 mph. I had him by a car until then. We were at a dry lake bed in El Mirage. Im running 4.10 and a tune while he's running just exhaust and intake.

I ran one from a dig and it took me by a car length through 110mph. I am assuming it is stock.

AWD puts them to 60 in 4.4 secs...I never raced one but i would think we have them up top. Im surprised to hear the one story were the evo pulled the stang up top...

When I raced the EVO, we did not exactly race from a dig. (Sorry for the misinformation) We were at a light and I was looking over to see if he was down but he would never look at me. So when the light turned green I just eased off the line waiting to see what he would do. He stomped on it, so I stomped on it. He had a half car on me by the time I stomped on it. Then it was pretty much even from there.

Later
