make no mistake, mach's are not to be mocked. they are just as quick as a S197, if not a hair quicker. the 4v is a great engine.

 

I can't speak for this kid's mach, but I roll raced a S197 with unknown mods..exhaust and probably a tune as there was a SCT tag on the back of the car..and took him by a half a car.

My car is a stock 03 Mach with a CAI.

I also got beat by a 09 GT/CS w/ gears and tune from a dig. So I'd say it's a driver's race...and a kid that young isn't likely to be a very proficient driver.
