Even an SVT Focus is no match for a well tuned Mustang GT.
I've seen them run low 15s with a blower.... not that impressive to me... Sending to street racer's corner -->

I tell you what... this looks like a money making opportunity for you, and a lesson learning for him..... Run him once and hold back, way back... and let him beat you a little... Then make a bet with him and race him again, then tear him apart..... That'll make him think twice before doing something like that again....

I raced a focus that was supercharged, with cams and every bolt on in the world. He lost 13.8 @101 to a 14.6 @99

That guy's Focus wouldn't even have the 170hp that an SVT has stock, and the SVT runs very high 15s at about 90mph stock, so speed racer is probably only in the 16s with his. He should stick to picking on 2.3L foxes...

I think it would be a close race if you turned the Mustang around and had a heads up race of front drivers.
