An open challenge to any CL-S owner

With all this B.S. talk from you guys about how you can beat Mustang GT's, I want to offer a challenge.

Any CL-S owner that lives within driving distance of Englishtown's Raceway Park (NJ) that would like to race against a brand new and totally stock 2002 Mustang GT 5 speed, well, I can set that up.

A co-worker of mine just picked up his new GT and is willing to race any of you guys for fun at E-town.

But since all the talk has been stock vs stock, I'd like to see a stock CL-S race him, especially an automatic CL-S. He will welcome any CL-S though, and I'd also like to see that match-up as well.

If any of you have the balls to race him, we'll put an end to all this trash talk.

Let me know.

Smitty, that's okay.... If you want to race w/mods, he'll do that too.

EDIT:

Smitty deleted his post. He said that he was stock for about a week, but he'd like to show up to watch.

Cool. I'd bet some of the CL-S drivers think that they'll beat the WS6 too, LOL

Well from a roll

Off the liine I stayed with the WS6 till about 45 and he pulled 1 car length on me the rest of the way... but when we rolled 55 and we both down shifted from 5th to 3rd I walked all over him... It was pretty pathetic... I drove his car and he drove mine after that and the same result.....

Hey Smitty and Tom2...

If this is really going to happen I suggest we go to Keystone Raceway on Tuesdays. They have Test and Tune on both Tues and Thurs now. I will video tape. My buddy went last week and he said he got seven runs in. I think that's enough runs to prove once and for all who's faster.

In fact, I might also run too in my Auto SS. What do the Mustang GTs run in the 1320 anyway?

I think Englishtown is the perfect place to see this, I personally think mustangs are sweet, as long as it's atleast a respectable GT. I'll bring my mini-dv since i'm on crutches, and i'll tape it. If this isn't happening anytime soon, then I'll be the auto CL-s driver in early September when my right foot should be healed enough to drive hard.
