A. actually the Camaro won.
B. Its archaic rear suspension is embarrassing. Keep in mind thats with the track pack. The area where IRS will really shine over the primitive Mustang set up is ride quality. As you know.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
