Yep, the stang is keeping up with its lil ol 289...and handling on the same level with its live axle. That's on the GT level. the GT500 is alone at the top of the Mountain pony car for now.
Who thought it would be a huge margin? We've been hearing from reviews for quite a while now that the Camaro just barely edges out the Mustang, and the one that's really left behind is the Challenger. It's impressive that the Mustang is almost as good with its lower horsepower. There aren't a lot of people who'd try to say the Mustang's a failure on the track - just people who get severely annoyed with Mustang fans who insist the Camaro's narrow victories don't count. The "yeah, you won, but you should've won by a lot more, and you didn't, so really you lost" idiots.
