The fastest that I've heard reported is 14.9 @ 94, so they will own you on the highway (by trap speed), but at the strip, it's all about the driver. With a regular Contour, I'm not to sure about your chances. A modded regular Contour can get you close (see sig). An SVT that has a good clutch should get you about the same genaral low 15's range. Do your best, but remember he has the better car.
