But who cares, it looked awesome because it was awesome.

Exactly my point!! The Camaro won/lost all at the same time, lol.

I still think the SRT8 should have been invited. Hell, toss in the GT500 and have a secondary burnout/shootout, lol!!

On the wheel of the 2011 Mustang it says GT

I agree...

If you have the SOUND ON for your speakers, you can hear the engine tone of the Camaro is CLEARLY the winner in the torque dept... hence longer, more enjoyable burnouts..!!!

Im impressed that it burned through second gear.

Then just put on the traction control button!

I think the whole point of this was to show the kind of pure power that each vehicle has WITHOUT the traction control on

Like I don't know that I drag race a 750rwhp 738rwtq GTO. I know what is what, please don't try and make it seem like a have no clue, been driving and dragging longer then u probably owned a sports car. TQ is what gets you off the line is what I was referring to and thats why I respond to his post that only addressed the hp.

Going to have to disagree with you on that one.

If you read the article it says that the power of the Mustang come on later on higher RPMs. So just maybe the Camaro has much more "INSTANT" power.

"So if you're still a sophomore in high school, the Camaro SS is the greatest single car ever built." - Best quote of that article! lol
