I'd say the Cougar would whoop on you in a drag race. It doesn't have much horsepower, but still has the cubes to give it decent torque.
If you had a 5-speed you might have a better chance. I would think you'd need some type of power adder like NOS or Turbo/blower to beat him, or quite a few mods to your Nat Aspirated Zetec to hang with him.
I can guarantee hes not running any 5.5-6 second 60 times. He'd be in the low 14's with that I believe.
