However because of the power to weight ratio, the mustang makes it more of a driver's race this year... we'll see next year

The dyno, nor the numbers, don't care what gear the car is in.

And if you want to get technical usually dynoing in a different gear, not 1:1, will result in slightly less power shown.

Hahaha. True true. Im not a government conspiracy person my man, but what i said is true, it has been seen that Obama's administration is willing to overstep the normal bounds of federal power. (LETS NOT LET THIS SPIRAL INTO A POLITICAL RANT) Thank God that they will be paying it off soon!! and this will all be behind us.

Right or wrong? Ford Confirmed the 5.0 to have 412hp. I would really like to know.

The Camaro and Mustang are good clean competition But this gen 5 Camaro is on a platform of its own the comeback will stick for a long time GM did a good job and it did wake up Ford I dont think their designs come close to the Camaro though.

Also I want to see what production/customers cars do over what pressers do.

For my last foray into off-topicness. I shall ask for ANYONE to name ANY administration that has *not* tried to step outside its normal bounds of federal power.

(You can't, thus the debate ends now.)

Stop referring to me like im not in the conversation, and dont make false accusations.

False accusations, lol, like i said you robbed somebody. OK fine you arent a mustang fan just a s**t disturber. Nothing about most of what youve said has left any room for anything other than "mustang wins and everyone loves mustangs". You even used the governme welfare line.

If you dont like being called a duck...stop quacking like one.

I like that game too and to answer your original question, yes GM/Chevy will strike back.
