Default $500 against RX 8

I have a race this weekend against a 2004 Mazda RX 8. I am sure I will smoke him, but I just wanted to make sure with you guys.

Anything can happen... If he has an automatic... they are much slower.

If he is completely stock you should win, provided you dont **** up the launch/shifting. However if he is willing to throw down 500$ i wouldnt bet he is stock.

If he is stock you will smoke him. Why would he put $500 on a stock car though? You should find out what he has done before you put up that kind of cash.

Probably younger driver with a new car, or one that says, yeah Mustangs are slow.

you really should becarful thats all we do down here is race for money and before that...we all make sure whos running what, you know just basics, is ur engine running forced induction and if were going to run slicks and what not....just because there **** shounds and looks stock doesnt mean it is, for all you know that rx8 could be stock but if he had some crazy swap with a 20b or somthing??? lol you just never know

tell him to pop, if he doesnt assume hes spraying, you can hide a kit on most cars in the fender-well or behind the dash or in the trunk under the spare tire.. dont be dumb about it and assume he is stock take a good look over his car to make sure what he has.. if he is putting up $500 then hes got some ****

I hope thats it, I would hate to hear about him losing his money. I won't race for money for that reason. People lie, no need to risk hard earned $ on that.
