how bad will i lose and should i just do it from a roll? im thinkin a first gear roll at 3500rpm cuz thats when my torque kicks in...ill pull him but will he catch up? are those cars good for catching up cuz i know for sure ill take him from the launch from a roll and stop?

If its a VTEC more than likely you will get your ass handed to you.

seriously this is like the third "will i win" thread in a week that ive read. JUST RACE. who cares if you lose. My opinion on it is i believe the weight of his car is gonna give him the advantage. But its still gonna be a close race. And yes i think if its vtec you will loose cuz those run a low 15 to high 14 sec stock. Other than that it will be close if not.
