What mods do you actually have?

A stock fox body will usually run high 14's to mid 15's.

As long as he gets traction I think he's going nip you. You only have about .5-.9 on him as it is stock, and considering he's gotta 100shot and a weight advantage, he'll probably get ya.

buy a $500 nitrous kit in the 4 sale section, spank him, and make him pay for it

I personally doubt that he is stock with nos. Most likely he has at least bolt-on's and maybe even gears etc. Not too many mustang guys running around are stock anymore, especially if he is willing to throw down 5 large. I'm guessing your gonna get an a** raping.

I agree, I never considered what other mods he may have. I dont know of one 5.0 around here that is stock. They all have CAI, headers, and catback at the very least. Like I said if he gets traction I think your done.

as I said earlier, buy a cheap nitrous kit. go ***** to the wall and put in a 150 jet, smoke him, then either break even, or sell it and get your 500 back...

I personally would not race him, a '92 Mustang with only gears, nitrous, and traction should go at least a low 13 in the quarter, and as it was already said how many just have that?

I don't know of many stock 5.0's out there period. My brother had a 92 gt that he just sold that I could not keep up with period. Most of them have at least a cai, intake, "e"cam, headers, x pipe, and full dual exhaust, and a gear at least 3.73. When my brother had that it was consistent low 12 sec, high 11 sec with good traction. When he got ported heads he was well in the low 11's. Old mustangs are fast as hell when they're modded...if not my lexus will beat a stock 5.0. However, if the guy is stock with a 100 shot (which I doubt he is for 500 bucks bet) then you may win, but if you want a good answer what do you have on your camaro...if it is stock then you are screwed...

He should be able to cut a low 13 with nos but like said before he needs traction also & for you it is crucial. I ran my basically stock 94 (13.9 run at 99 mph) against a similar stang with nos & open headers. I thought for sure he'd kill my butt. As it turned out I cut a .589 light and pulled on him 1/2 way down till he got traction but he still lost by 3 cars. He bogged off the line than broke his tires loose while I was on my way. He pulled a 15.1 @106 mph. That car should have at least been in the low 13's to hi 12's. if not better.
Get the NOS back.
