Take em to a track and find out, asking others wont stop the debate.

inb4 a massive crash due to stupid drag racing on a busy suburban road resulting in another innocent death

lol either way both are vee sickses
Na Holden is inline 6 and Ford is V6. Where did you get your information from?
This thread was stupid until the comments about the Holden being a straight 6 and the Ford being a v6.
Now it's stupid to the power of *facepalm*
In reply to OP, take it to the track and find out. And what do you mean there is alot of competition between you and your mate? There is no such thing as competative 'talking about racing speculating on who would win'.
As it has been stated, the type and power of the car isn't the only variable in a drag race. Driver skills, transmission type, driver skill, tyre traction, track conditions all play a part.

Lets find two utter heaps of shit and argue about which one is least shit...
take it to your local track.. and get some timed, proper runs under your belts
That way there are no excuses for the loser ! (hopefully your mate)
Plus you get to race for a good distance so the winner will be well and truly clear...
It's a good night out - you get to see plenty of good cars, and hopefully pick up a few driving skills out of it. Best of all - you'll be supporting drag racing (not street racing), rather than supporting the beer'o'clock fund of your local government employees when you get done
as for your question - if they're both stockers, it will be much of a muchness - both auto? manual? - take as much weight as you can out of your car before you race him. You'll probably find that you'll get him on take off, and he'll catch up and pass further down the track.
neither, u both fail
Yup 'ol buick is a straight six bro. Must mean the ecotec in your VR is a straight six too. To the OP, cheat and spend a few thousand dollars modding your car without him knowing then hit the track and blow the p.o.s ford away!!
Kerb weight (kg) 1512 Ford vs Kerb Weight (kg) 1335 Holden
164kW @ 5000 rpm. Ford vs 125kW @ 4800rpm Holden
366Nm @ 3150 rpm. Ford vs 288Nm @ 3200-3200rpm Holden
Face it without stroking and or supercharging your buick you won't get very far.
