close race, you just better hope he misses some shifts and you dont [&:]. or do things the old fasion way pop his tires or fill his exhaust pipe up with that foam crap

 

i thought they were just 4 cyl. the mazda 6 i would avoid but u should be able to handle a mazda 3........tell us how it goes

 

If its the turboed version you would get owned, but if its not than your ok.

 

I looked it up and a Mazda 3 is supposed to be good for a low 16, so if you can drive, I'd say you can take him.

 

My wife drives a Mazda 3s and while it is a nice car and pretty zippy for a 4 banger its still a 4 banger. I'm guessing you're a V6, if so the 3swill be close the 3i not so much. If its the Mazdaspeed 3 you are dead meat.

 

better hope it isnt a mazdaspeed3 they have 260 hp and 280 ft/lbs of torque. if it is just a regular mazda 3 it will be a relatively close race. just go race him and if you lose you lose who cares.

 

so you have a V6 stang? Whoever is the better driver will win this race

If its a MazdaSpeed3 you might as well pack up and go home bc those things are rockets

 

I just beat a Mazdaspeed 3 from a 30ish roll in my IS300. Check out the thread I just bumped for the story. They're definitely quick, but supposedly their throttle is limited in 1st and 2nd gear so they are at an extreme disadvantage from a slow roll.

 

well its not a speed3 just a regualr old 3, and iam only a sixxer so we'll see what happens ill be sure to bring the story back here

 

Just to be the oddman out, I'll say the Mazda has you on this one, sence you are so nervous about racing him. Take a chill pill (ya, i just said chill pill) and race him.
