Default what can we beat?

Hey I saw a post like this in the v8 forums and figured it would be interesting to find out opionins on what cars all of you think our v6 can beat. Here is a list of cars that i find are comparable to ours. So assuming all the cars on this list are manuals racing a v6 manual with the same driver. Post up on wether or not you think our car can beat the following in a 1/4 mile race.
Cobalt supercharged
Acura rsx
any year 4.6 stang
any of the newest gen v6 camaros or firebirds
the latest miata
acura tsx
any 3 series bimmer
these are just a few that come off the top of my head feel free to post up if you would like me to add a car to the list.

All jokes aside, most of the cars on his list would be a good race for stock for stock. The 4.6 would be tough as well as bimmers(never raced one though).

I smoked a 350z the other day in my Prius, and as I passed him, I flipped him the bird.

Including an M3??? I don't think so. There are lots of cars out ther that the 4.0's will beat though.

i wouldnt bank on running near 99-04 4.6's. sn95 would be a good run assuming you find one stock
an m3 330 hp would destroy a sixxer.

Here's a good list to compare our cars too:

http://www.albeedigital.com/supercou...0-60times.html

Asuming we can break into the high 14's fairly easily with bolt ons, and we are in the 15's stock. This list should give you a idea. As for 330HP M3's, I've been itching to try one at the track! They are at the top of my priority list for kills at the track. Stats are interesting on this car:

Nominal output/rpm 333/7900 hp
Max. torque/rpm 262/4900 lb-ft
Weight 3415 lbs

Weight of my car via the scale at Norwalk is 3480lbs. Pretty close, but thier TQ is a bit low IMO. Should be an interesting race.
