Well let me give you a little background on the situation. In this small town where no one knows how to build a motor correectly my car has been the fastest car in town for the past 2 years. Ive raced everyone and always won. Everyone thinks its way faster than it is, and they are always tryin to build something to beat me.

Anyways this highschool kid with a very rich family has a 440 GTX. His motor/trans cost 12,000 to get built! Its a stroked 440 with the whole edelbrock combo, heads,intake carb etc. The car was running 12.9@116 on street tires!

Anyways since we began setting up a race between us basically for bragging rights of the fastest car in town, his parents gave him 2,000 to try to beat me. Well this weekend he went 12.54@118 on street tires!

Now here comes the tricky part. He refuses to race me on N20, and insists that it is cheating. I saw I get 1hp of n20 for every cu in he has on me.

So should I race him all motor, we have identical times, but he has way more HP. Should I race him and spray an 80shot and just not say anything, or should I say **** you I'm running n20 don't be a little *****, and run 150 shot? Or should I try and do something to make my car faster all motor? But I dont have a lot of money.

Motor to Motor we are IDENTICAL!
12.54@107.4
12.54@118.x

This is going to be a huge race as if I loose my car looses its reputation! I can't loose!
