OOPS, I stand corrected! But what i said about the 93 was right Ummm, you should be able to hang with a stock 2003GT but if he has been tuned and changed the intake and exhaust you have been beaten.

It's a CAI & SCT X-CAL package that's what I have and you will not regret getting it. Makes all the difference with 4:10 gears.

A modded anything will can beat just about anything, don't worry about it. If you didn't look under the hood you really can't tell. He probably had exhaust, intake, TB, and gears (very basic and common mods). You were beat by the gears and not the HP I'd say. I just saw an Envoy smoke, and I mean smoke a Lancer EVO. I wouldn't get side by side with that SUV. You just never know.

And it could have been a Bullit. I know the first month I had my car I lost to what I thought was an 03-04 GT. I ended up talking to the guy about a month after he smoked me. He came up and asked if I remembered getting smoked by a red Bullit. I told him no, I didn't, and that I remember all of the cars that smoked me. Then I looked at him, and the car, I could have hugged him I was so happy. Getting beat by a Bullit made it alot easier to swallow!

I know the Mach 1's are fast but the Bullitts only had like 5-10 more hp. I take it he had some mods too though.

I just ran my third '03 Mach 1....I keep hoping one will be a challenge. There is always someone with a faster car. But, the Mach 1's that I've raced have not been very close. If you dont think that you can be beat by a pickup truck or a ricer, check out some of these street races..http://videos.streetfire.net/
