It all depends on what motor he has, if hes got like say.. a 1970 454 out of a Chevelle SS, its gonna be your funeral.. with or without a TII engine, assuming it stays stock.. If thats the case.. just wait for him to put gas in it one day, then drive by and laugh, thats a sure fire way to win.

The important thing to remember is that no matter what you should try and have fun, who cares if u win or lose? Its not a world altering event. Most i can say is go for it, if you lose, or well, beef the car up, if u win, good for you.
