Very cool. Thanks for putting that together. That 1970 Boss Mustang was faster than the 2010 SS up until he was held up by traffic. Impressive.

The interesting part is that both of these were run in 2009. My point is more the similarity in a 70s race car and an understeering 2010 SS. I would love to see an actual
run between the 69 70 TA cars and stock SS or if needed 1LE
