Default Bolt on Mach talking trash . . .

Sorry for the Bench racing guys!!!!

So i've got this guy, hes actually a really good buddy of mine. He's got an 04 Mach 1 (manual) with Intake, Cat back, mid pipe, and springs. He said there is no way my car would even touch his car (even though i've driven his car before. I was the one who put his springs in)


I dont think he has a chance. . . what do you guys think? He cant be making more than 310 at the wheels can he?

There's no way he's getting over 300rwhp. If I had to throw a number out there, I would say more like 285-295rwhp. You're motors built right? How is it set-up?

Yea, you got 'em for sure. If he at least had 4.10s and DRs, it would make it a little more intresting, but as is, you're set-up for racing much better than he is. If you guys are doing a top end race or roll race, he should hang in there better. If you guys are racing at a track, he's going to lose bad.

How much are you putting to the ground with your mods? A friend of mine has a fully built gt and still only puts down like 270. Your cams are a bit more aggressive though.

I'd think if you have some good drag radials you'll take him. If you don't your just gonna sit there and spin all day with that aggressive of gearing.
