Only way your gonna know is if you race him. Just try, someones gotta lose - someones gotta win. As long as hes not trying to bet money or somthing, and you know your cars limit, whats the worst that could happen. Its an american car made in canada VS. a swedish car made in america, who knows what the results would be.

Sounds like you would smoke him, S60's are high 14's to low 15's, unless it's an S60R.

IF hes turbo ur gona get killed top end, i would do it from a 20 or 30 roll, or from a straight dig. Do have a manual? His turbo will not spool till about 3 grand giving u a good advantage from a dig. I would go check out his ride and see if he has a front mount or any other noticable mods. Go for it, it will be a good benchmark!

I've never even seen a volvo at the track[&o]Go buy a motor trend ans see what they say they run. Hard to imagine you'd loose though.

You shouldn't be racing if you pull over because people get on your rear a bit too close. You don't sound like you could handle it.

If you're going to race do it at the track where you can smoke him in front of EVERYONE! :)
