I am posting this because I am sick of hearing the guy in my class brags about his mustang. I dont know much about car and I dont race either, but this guy is keep on insisting that we should race. Im in a class full of girls and this guy want to prove his manliness by beating me because he been racing every girls in the class just to show off his car, but no one was impressed, and the girls said if he want to race, he should race me because they all think my audi is way better than his mustang. So since then he been after me. I think my car can beat him, but I just want some reassurance from you guy so i wont look like a fool. I have 2002 2.7t stock and he has 1999 mustang convertible, stock also. I just want to shut him up so he'll leave me alone. Any advices would be appreciated.
if he has a stock v8 it will be close race stock v8 mustang are 14.9-15.0 dependint on driver...and audi are about the same with a automatic right? i have a 2000 Mustang GT, V8, Convertible, and it pulls really good and i also have a 2000 audi a6 2.7T. i would say the mustang would pull top end on the audi.
it all depend if his is a v6....then u will take him no problem. but if its a v8 then it will be a close match. if your running at the track.
is your car a manual or automatic and what about his...V8 stick will take your audi stock for stock. but dont quote me.
thank for the replies, he has a stock v6 automatic, mine also automatic. I was pretty confident that I can take him, but I just needed some assurance. Thank guy.
Looks like I was late with my response. V6??? Go spank his ass and tell him to call you Poppa Bear from hear on out. And like Silver said..DON'T TELL HIM ABOUT YOUR TWIN TURBOS!!! Then rag on him on how a family luxury sedan whooped his ass.
I hate Fords anyway

You'll take that V6 very easily. The V8 might be another story. I was nose to nose with my buddy's GS430....I felt like I was in high school racing my Mustang...I haven't done that in so many years.
Find a starting point that contains some loose sand or water so you can show him the distinct advantage of the Quattro system while you are at it!
It would be hillarious to see you get about 5 or 6 car lengths ahead of him before he could even get traction, but with a V6 under the hood of that Mustang I don't think he would really be in danger of putting too much power to the rear wheels.
Have fun with him....and be sure and fill us in on the results!
We want VIDEO!!!!!! lol or some hot lil mammiis up agianst the winning car with bikini on! LOL!
Yes....chicks in bikinis would be good...lol.
But in all seriousness, be safe. Don't do it in traffic.. PERIOD!!! We've all seen the crashes. Go to a track or a very deserted road. Make sure it is dry outside for two reasons. 1) Safety - You don't want to tear your car up because you or him couldn't control your car. 2) Complaints - You don't want him to have any reason to have an excuse as to why you whooped him. You only need to beat him one good time. After that, you have bragging rights. Simply say "Why do I need to beat you again? That ass-whoopin wasn't good enough?"

After you beat him, go double or nothing over who can get the highest grade in the class. If you young bucks are gonna lock horns, at least do it over something that improves your chances of being successful in life and staying out of jail.
make sure you put all the girls in your car while you race him so they can all laugh at him with you.
as a point of refrence I can beat my brothers 99 mustang V8 pritty bad but I have a strong chip and a few other suporting mods.
find a clear road and kick a$$

If its stock V6 you will most definately smoke his ass BADLY. Now if you say he's been racing for many years...beware of mods... most likely hes a poser, after you have beaten him recommend the biggest Honda dealer in your area, tell him "You can have the same results, but you will get 40+ mpg, and you can do this:"
Ok here is the most exciting result we all been waiting on. I have never done anything this crazy in my life, this was the first and it sure got my adrenalin sky rocketed, and I wouldn't do it again though. I beat him on two different occassion. The first one was from a stop light, and this was a little bit more of a race than the 2nd time. The road started out with two land and in about a quarter mile or so the right land merged into one lane. When the light turned green, we both just go at it. He was ahead of me for about a second or two then i caught up and pulled ahead of him. I was ahead enough to merge in front of him. He didnt admit he lose, his excuse was he wasn't trying. I just told him that he is lame. The second time was when we were on I 90. I was going 60's so he came up on my left and looked at me and stepped on the gas. I stepped on the gas just a split second after he did. He was ahead for just a few second but I caught up fast after i feel like the audi finally kick into gear. He was was way behind me, and when i looked down on my speedometer, i was already close to 110mph. I never thought the audi can go from 60 to 100+ that fast. I had a camry before, so going 80's was fast for me. Now I appreciate my Audi even more. I actually got a complement from him after the second time. So that's my story. I was dedicating the race to you guy on my favorite forum.
Awesome....glad it worked and even even more happy that nobody was hurt. Now you can put it to rest and the next time he trys to suggest you race again you tell him you have nothing left to prove.
Be sure you ask him to explain the details in your class though....you might as well milk it out in front of the chickies.
Where are the pictures he will give u the lame excuse of no proof and he said he beat you lol. that why when i race it always recorded! or proof from other people watchin lol. anyways: Im still waiting on the hot lil mami on the hood of the car in their bikini!!!
you racedo n the I 90? i live near the I-90 in buffalo lol.
Good job! I just saw this post! I have raced the new 2007 V8 mustang GT's and stayed with them. On the highway i usually get the advantage and pull out about a car length before they give up. From the dig.......I usually get about 1.5 to 2 car lengths and they they stay there. The Quattro's definitely help here! When the Turbo's spool up things get a little further between us but nothing extrodinary...just a slight cruise ahead of them a little more. It's funny when they go to grab a gear the Stang's lose about a 1/2 car length each time!
I have race a really niced "2 FAST, 2 FURIOUS" Newer 350Z before This guy had it all. I had my son with me and he was checking out the car as was I. Right before the light turned green he wanted to rev on me but I ignored him and laughed it off. I guess he really wanted to race cuz he rolled down his window and called me a "Pussy!"......Now he had my attention. He took off an got a good start ahead of me....Then all of a sudden this grocery getter....completely stock BTW goes buzzing past him! I slowed down for him and then he wants to go from a roll-on.....Okay.....That one was worse than from the stop sign! He had no chance at all! I slowed down again, I was done fooling around, and as he passed my son and I rolled down the window and we were laughing our asses off and pointing at him as he went by!!!!! So funny!
I will tell you though. I raced the new 07 Accord? They guy was with me better than the fixed up 350z! I don't know if he had anything done but wow! I would get the jump but he was there from then on and I could not pull away. We stopped at the light and he asked me what kind of stuff was on my car and looked surprised when I told him it was stock. He must have had something done to his accord but that one was fast!

If you think 60-to-100 feels fast in a stock 2.7T, try chipping it. You get pushed back into the seat and it's in triple figures in no time. And I rarely bother to downshift - just leave in it 6th.
