This is just a perfect example of what can happen on the street. This was essentially an 1/8 mile race...You SHOULDN'T see some huge win on street tires, on the street between these two cars. Had the race been at a track on DR, the difference would have been a little more, but still not huge...Power is what wins the top end, and if racing a full 1/4 or roll racing 80+ this would have gotten ugly.

Just picked up my new C/D...
2010 mustang 0-60 4.9 but 0-140 34.2 seconds
2010 Camaro 0-60 4.8 but 0-140 22.3 seconds

You see what I'm saying...you shouldn't see a huge gap down low where the race is more about traction and launch technique than about power...but up top its all about power, and even though the SS is a pig, its got enough power to trounce the underpowered stang...This would be a similar outcome in the SS vs GT500 race, although, the SS would get the short end of the stick in that one...
