91 escort gt

How fast are those. I met a guy that said he would smoke my 85 305 tpi iroc. My car only runs low 15 would it be a close race. It has the 1.8 mazda motor 127hp with a 5 speed no other mods.
thanks

91 gt's had I think 110hp, maybe a little more, but they aren't that fast.

0-60 @ ~ 8.5 to 9 seconds

1/4 mile @ ~16.5 to 17 seconds.

I had a friend with one of them and he thought it was fast too untill another m8 wooped him in his 84 stock auto L69 Z28. Smoked him from a roll and on the highway. U got him easy with a TPI.
