I'm 99% sure an LS1 won't have a problem with it. And a 200 lb. difference is big

its like he said though a dig will be no problem, but a rollwhen he is getting boost at the beginning of a shift COULD make it interesting.. but then again i have never seen one race at all

Some info from edmunds

At the drag strip, we recorded a 0-60 time of 5.9 seconds and a quarter-mile time of 14.2 seconds at 100 mph. That's 0.4 second slower to 60 than the last Subaru WRX we tested, but a staggering 1.3 seconds quicker to that speed than a Honda Civic Si. Plus, the Mazda is at an obvious launch disadvantage in the sprint to 60 against the WRX given the Subaru's all-wheel drive. By the end of the quarter-mile the Mazda's added power makes the contest a dead heat against the WRX and blows the Honda out of the water by almost a full second.

Dude your car "should" run low 13's IF you can drive. The Mazda is decently quick for what it is but the LS1 will have no trouble.

Yea the speed3's are definetly quick but if I had an LS1I wouldn't worry at all from a dig or roll.

You're dang right I'm scared of my brothers car it is Staged 3 05 SRT4. There is a stock one around me I want to race but I can't ever run into him. Oh snap I just realized that a stock Mazda speed 3 shouldn't have problems with us beacuse it is stock and the juiced 4 banger I raced isn't....DANG my bad guys.
