If it's a V-6...more than likely. It is a fast car...not many people know that.
I'm assuming that you are just racing for fun right?? At E-town just for bragging rights and not pinks...right??

yea just for fun, but i dont wanna race it cause ill never hear the end of how his moms honda smoked a mustang

I actually raced one that wasn't stock. Refused to pop the hood.

I beat him by a half car length. Then he proceeded to list all the mods my car would have to have to beat him like that.

You'll lose.

There's the answer....use someone else's Mustang...someone who has already beaten a V-6 Accord????

I just looked and the cars listed as 244hp. What are you at?

Often times in a race it isn't only the car...it can be the driver too!!
Remember this....power perceived is power achieved....prior to the
race just remind him how gutsy he is in racing his Mom's car....how
he is taking the chance of possibly ruining the trans or engine....how
upset his parents would be if he had to have it towed to his house...then
gun it at the green!!!

Sometimes in life you have to take the psychological upper hand.

All this thanks to the United States Marine Corps.....Ooh Rah!!!!!

"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."

This is one of those senerios where you have nothing to gain. Should you win, your supposed to win. Should you lose, "Ha-Ha my Mommy's car beat a Stang".

If you race and lose, walk right over and kiss his girlfriend on the lips, that will get his attention and shut him up, then ask if he wants to race again and give his girlfriend a wink.

Be prepaired to wrestle. But you are not allowed to hit in the face with friends. jocolor

This is good stuff!!! What a Face

"There are a lot of people that have some great ideas, but they never come to fruition because of the fear of failure. To many people believe it’s safer to never try and follow their dreams because that way, they’ll never fail. Now, I’m not “Mr. Motivational Speaker Guy”, but I’m here to tell you that if you don’t try, you do fail."
Quoted from: http://www.randomjabber.com/blog/article/its-better-to-try-and-fail-than-to-have-never-tried-at-all/

So I say go for it! drag10
