Of course there's no way to gurantee your win (unless you go pick up a zex kit ). All I recommend is to powerbrake and launch well.

With all those stickers and fake stuff you clearly have the advantage

Borrow some Nos fittiments and the bottle from a friend, install it, and raise the ante to $50, best 2 of 3 runs. That way he can watch you burn him, toy with him, and burn him again.

But assuming you don't have the richest and dumbest friends, I'd say that he probably doesn't have much on you, so just go with the weight reduction. It's free (read SCC this month, although I'm still disappointed in the article for some strange reason).

Good luck.

You do realize that your car is stock, right?

Now go ahead and tell me about your intake...1-2hp.

Best thing for you to do if you really want to win is weight reduction...take everything out of your car, spare, sub box, passengers, seats, etc.

I have an I4 Coupe and I raced a Sedan and all i have is AEM Cold Air, Headers, and Muffler. I burned his ass but he was stock. I am also guessing that the sedan weighs more than a coupe as well. lol

Thanks,
Tom
