Need Racing Advice Fast!
I'm gonna race a guy in a 2002 GT Mustang for $20 bucks, and my friends are gonna record it, so I wanna beat him by as much as possible. I have an automatic, and I was wondering if I should make my car downshift or not. how should I run it?

ah man, we raced twice. first time I did a really bad burnout and he beat me by an inch. the second time I got traction and raped him. we're doing best two out of 3, so next friday we'll do our last race for 20 bucks.

GTs r slow!!!!!....you should have got a 6spd but oh well still a nice car good luck on the run.....i ran a 03 GT with,fullexhaust,throttle body,intake,fuel,rail n a few other things when i was all stock....20 roll...no spin on both cars n got him easy by 4 cars....80% throttle(road was messed up)...but yeh ive been told to watch out for Mach 1s tho.....other then that all stangs r slow....except for the 03-04 cobras haha...well i mean they hadda put the supercharger on after the Fbody died but yeh "Bold Moves"

Yeah dont worry about GT's unless they got spray or a power adder...I raced my buddies GT with headers, exhaust, throttle body, cold air, and gears and walked him BAD lol But on the other hand, I raced my roomates Mach 1 exhaust only and only got him by like a car and thats it, I pull but not fast the longer the race the further I walk him....And I only have exhaust and LID with the 323 gears man, You GOT it

Mach 1s...LMFAO. They are the biggest joke FORD came out with. They do start out faster than a GT, but they don't have near the potential of the GTs. The dealership where I got my car from tried to trade me out of my car and into a brand new Mach 1 back in 04, I test drove it while they were fixing my car, when we got back to the dealership I got out of the car, chunked the keys at him and said "You can keep this overpriced piece of shit". TRUE STORY!!! Best choice I think I have made this decade...LOL.

the guy I raced had his car gutted, all the seats were out, no spare tire, nothing. he had switched it premium with only 2 gallons of gas in it. he had a cold air intake, power chip, octane adder I think?, and a cat-back exhuast. all I have done is a flowmaster cat-back, lid, TB bypass, bellows, SFC's, and STB. I had everything in my car, including text books and around 10 gallons of gas. I have a couple videos from the two races I'll post.

that second run was much more like it is supposed to be. Next time you should have a couple friends ride with you just to rub it in. Full tank of gas, 2 passengers, and full race weight. LOL.

good race man. last time i raced a GT it was at the track he was runnin headers cold air gears and a shifter and he had slicks. I have shifter intake exhaust some suspension and a clutch with street tires. I was spinning all the way through first gear and he only got me by a nose. Wish i would have had slicks i would have ate him up! My trap speed was 113 his was only like 104

thanks, we're doing a re-race next friday. one of the guys who watched has a friend who owns a tricked out STI who wants to race me. according to them it put out 370 ft. lbs. I'm pretty sure I'd lose, but I said I'll race him for fun too.

yeah from a dig that STi has the advantage. And if he is modded, well good luck. Then go buy a cam package and get your sweet revenge.
