I was playing around with a newer modded stang last week on the interstate and my advantages are certainly even more noticible from a roll.
Bone stock 5.0's run very very low 9's depending on the driver, full weight, with street tires... If you want, I'll put my MAYBE 200 horsepower overweight pig up against your cute little Volvo anytime. As for getting off the line hard?? Yeah, a 2.3 60' time is a real hard launch.
I'd gladly wipe the floor with your boosted, AWD, 350 hp car with my little old carbon infested pushrod. Hopefully you can see past all the oil blow by as it passes by.
As for big weight advantages, my car has been said to weigh in around 3400 or so with no driver. Your horsepower should make up for that difference no problem...
