He's willing to run, I wouldn't give him so much as a fender. I mean, hey, doesn't he really want to see how his car does in a heads up race?? If not, I'm sure you could safely give him 4 cars.

Each car is about a tenth in the 1/4. 4 cars is alot unless you get the jump. Better to be safe than sorry, run him heads up and for money to make it worth your time. Make sure he doesnt have a hidden bottle. No person in their right mind would run a stage 1 E55 in a stock S55, he's up to something if he's trying to run heads up for money.

If the guy isn't BSing, 4 cars should be safe for a stage 1 E and stock S55. Of course, no one EVER bull*****s when it comes to racing.

dont give him any...a race is to see who has the better car and who can get traction off the line. Race him heads up, tape it, and post it please!
