HIs car has a little bit of mods like a k & n and a flowmaster delta series. My car is original no mods. DO you guys think he will beat me.

Do you own the v6 bird? The v-8 would beat you even if the v6 has the listed mods.

Also, I don't think this particualr topic belongs in this forum.

If the 6 is modded, then it'll really depend on the condition of both of your cars. Is the RS an automatic? What about the 6? If you're signed up at this site tho, most likely you value your thirdgen and take care of it, and I believe you will smoke the 6. However, if you are one of them bastards that lets their car fall to pieces, then the 6, if properly maintained and modded, will take you.

Dude unless you have nitrous, a charger or some serious $$$ mods on the 6 and or the 305 is in bad shape or he's not a good driver, you basically dont have a chance man. Think about it great mods put our v6 cars in the early v8 power band, and these are expensive mods man
