Have you heard the truck with the engine running?
This is very general advice, but if you don't hear and feel a very deep rumble and lopey cam idle coming from the truck or a very high pitch electric-power drill/dentist's drill-sounding device under the hood (coming from a centrifugal blower), or maybe some hissing from a wastegate when the owner lets off the throttle, than I would say, you stand a very good chance.
Also, look at the tires. Are they wide? High performance?
The first place I look when I want to know how powerful a car is is at the tires. Outside of cars like the C63 -- which has little pencils out back -- most of the time the tires will tell the story.
Of course, you should race off road, on the strip.

He probable knows what you can do 11.6 --12.2 and you have no clue what he can do. Not a good bet! He could have a 10 sec. truck! Run for fun only. At least wait till it 100+ degrees, that will slow him down!!

No way of knowing about all his mods. If he wants to race your car for 500 i think there's a reason for it. Below's a heads up.
