Default Hot Shit?!

So my buddy finally got tired of me thrashing him every time i raced his ricer so he went and got a 2006 Roush stage 2....the one with stock 300hp engine and a lil suspension werk. I think its standard adn i know he can drive ok but not great he has street tires and all.....my question is what kinda times can i expect from this guy? Is he really hot shit now or can i still beat him like a lil baby.

Drivers race with a slight edge to the Roush.

don't forget the new cars are heavier than ever... you should see a tight race.

I don't see that he will win @ all all he has is suspension mods?!@?!?! He's heavier, has no gears, no bolt-ons, no lca's, it's a new unfamiliar car and from what i hear from him launches like a mini van. I'm sorry and i may be wrong but i think i'm going to destroy hime considering this week i raced a an 03 Roush stage 3 and beat him 3 out of 3 times and then raced a 98 cobra with full boltons and tied him twice and beat him once. Maybe i will get spanked.....but i doubt it. We'll find out Wednesday night @ the strip. Boooooyaaaa!!! LOL I'm really excited and still in shock over the monster beating i put down on that Roush stage 3.....i'm so excited i'm going to write another post on it right now.
