They're quick cars, but nothing a STOCK New Edge can't handle. You'll beat his ***....

A 2007 Mazda Speed6 is rated at 14 flat in the 1/4. I bet one would take a stock New Edge 4 out of 5 races. The car won't be any match for the OP's GT though.

^ Well, I'm not saying a New Edge GT will beat every time or anything, just that they can more than hold their own against one. Stock for stock, it'd be an interesting race....

In the above race, the GT was modded, and both the Z and the MS6 were stock.

I have a MazdaSpeed6. From a roll, you got him. But since you said you were going to the track then its another thing because the MS6 gets to use the AWD. Don't be so quick to judge, the MS6 can give you a run for your money, seing as how you would have to drive the car perfectly. You guys are forgetting the "miscellanous"...if there's cold weather (like...now), the MS6's turbo wil benefit from that and boost a bit more, the cold weather will also bear the stang with lack of grip if he doesnt warm up right. Sometimes the track has traction issues for all participants that arent awd...there are parts were the car doesnt grip etc...im sure all who have gone to one know this.

Another thing would be that lenght...a 1/8th of a track presents an easy 8 for the MS6. Hard to catch up on that one. The 1/4mile is of course easier. Don't underestimate your opponent.

This is all assuming the MS6 is stock. How long has your friend had it? If he just got it, he stands no chance.
