Default 02 Camaro vs. 05 Mustang

a buddy of mine who is a die hard ford fan just bought himself an 05 v6 five speed mustang.

so naturally there was a little smack talk, and now we are going to race. should this be an easy kill for me?

210 hp claimed by Ford. I'm not sure if the Mustang is heavier or not, but if his Stang is stock, your mods should put you a bit ahead of him in the HP area.

we will be lining up on some back country road. especially up here in canada, strips are few and far between.

the stang is almost the same weight, while putting out an estimated 210. i am hoping the mods will allow me to make this a definitive race.

haha, dark knight, you can come teach me, as long as i get to learn on your car

4.0 mustang 210 hp @ 5300 rpm, 240 lb-ft @ 3500 rpm

Race him and find out since with your mods you should be very close to the same power level. Im going to say drivers race.
