the right outcome? Last night i raced a 2003 stang (auto) Gt with just a cai and sct tuner.
and i have a 03 stang (auto) Gt with the mods in my sig. We both started from a 20mph roll and stayed about dead even and then he started to pull and i let off after i noticed i wasnt stayin with him. I had two other people in the car. One was 155lb the other 177lb and the other 232lb and he only had himself and he was about 190lb. I figured even though i had alot more weight my mods would of made up for it all. Although i dont know if it makes a difference or not but i had a air leak and a transmission fluid leak and a loose shifter.

The extra weight will set you back alot. When I get on my car with passengers inside, there is a big difference in performance.

OP, a lot of your mods are for getting you out of the hole. From a roll, with the extra weight, that sounds about right. I would've thought your car would at least stay even, but you did have a enough extra weight to set you back a couple cars. 100lbs=1 tenth of a second....that adds up quick.

No offense but that intake and plenum aren't going to be a huge help when working with those stock heads and cams. I'd say like stone said half of your mods are suspension and that would make for a different race if you two ran from a dig. But that extra 300 lbs you were lugging around doesn't help too much either. I say drop the passengers, and run him from a dig.
