What do you think? My 95' SHO vs 92 GT for $500

[MR-R1CHTER]

buddy of mine offered me 500 bucks to race my 95' 3.0l mtx in his 92 5.0 5speed. probably rolling 1/4mi. Just curious what you guys think or if you have any similar stories! Thanks

From a dig, 5.0 more than likely has you. From a low speed, pretty even, anything above 55+ you should have little trouble. If that 5.0 is stock of course.

Way too open-ended of a question.

What has been done to either vehicle?

Stay away from rear wheel drive cars with a huge variety of rear gear ratios available.
A "one-night only" switch to 4.56 gears will bury you, no matter what you do to your car.

completely stock 5.0 with small bolt ons (cold air intake, mufflers)

it will likely own you.

I figure if your "buddy" wants $500 there's something hinky.

 

[MR-R1CHTER]

Well guys, we raced..... Took him by half a car length! Wasn't for 500 unfortunately but still makes me proud she can take it.

Just beware of a rematch (with the money). See post #4.
Nice outcome with the 3.0, congratulations.
