Oh...you are one of "those" guys. Let me ask you, when was the last time you were on a road course?

Personally, I could careless about who is faster on a road course. As long as I can beat that ass from stop light to stop light or dragstip, I am content...have fun with your orange cones.

No I couldn't care less, I like straight line too. But its a fail if ford can't beat a 3 year old 1le with their new track package mustang around a road course. If the new camaro turns up being faster in the 1/4 I'll bet you will care then ford troll boy

So this means that my car will outrun the 2015 GT, 2014 1le and the 2014 SS in the 1320.

And all the Mustang guys who gave the Camaro crap for being slower in the quarter mile will now... run the quarter slower and still bitch about Camaro owners?

Truth

If Ford Racing had something to hide their wouldn't be drag components available in the first place . In the end the enthusiasts win as we are having fun watching and racing this new platform as the die hard Bowties on here continue to reach and bait anyone willing to bite.

Say what you will, but when it comes to Camaro and Mustang... Ford engineers wait for no one. From retro to classic, track oriented packages to full blown at a premium. If an update comes around the time of the 6th gen Camaro, please, don't take it personal because this pony is the originator and in some eyes two steps ahead of the game. I say this in the least confrontational way I possibly can.

I wouldn't be to sure about that. Even at current power levels if gm can drop weight it will be as fast or faster then the 5.0.

It's definitely going to handle A LOT better.

By all means it should handle better but its gonna be fun to watch "those" guys only care about drag to now jump on the road course ban wagon.

Impressive for sure.

Maybe you only care about drag racing but that in no way is what the 1le was built for and you know that. Sorta like comparing lap times of a top fuel car and time slips of a Indy car then complaining.

Yep just watch out for those scat packs.

Some of you don't pay attention to the fastest list here ? New GT 12.8
There's bone stock ls3 and l99s here running 12.5-LS3//12.7L99
And u say the Camaro is slower smh

[VADER SS L99]

I don't think a equally equipped 2015 Mustang GT is slower than the old 2014 model but it's not faster either. I think when the smoke clears it will go down as about the same quickness. Is that a win or fail? Fail in my opinion but each to their own. If the 2016 Camaro SS comes out and is no faster or even only 1mph faster than the 2015 model then I will be the first to come on here and say EPIC FAIL.

Study up on Density Altitude then come back.

Well it looks like the 1LE just spanked the new GT. There is no other way to describe this new GT other than a fail, from looks, to driver fun, to performance. It can't even compete with a now 3-yro SS 1LE design on the track, and will get toasted by the R/T Challenger Scat Pack at the strip.
