raced and beat 96ish crown vic

ive got this friend whose always talkin sh*t about how his dads crown victoria would kick my cars ***. so he stopped by my house with the ford last week and wanted to race so we set out looking for a racing road and when we found one i pulled up next to him , i tried to load my rpm's for a good launch but got a little to excited and started burning out . right then i took my foot off the break i blew past him and had him by like 2 carlengths till about 60 when we stopped racing .

he says its a 96 with an v8 (probably a 4.6) does anyone know the stock numbers on these?

Even the Police Impersonator option only makes about 240 hp, and is pushing so much car that even IT is slow.

It's a Crown Vic, not a race car. He is stupid for racing it.
