the grill is from a v-6 and there are no gt badges. Or 5.0 badges on the side.

Apples and oranges. I know if I burned out 70 yards I'd brag to my friends that I ripped it almost a football field. Just an exaggerated estimate =P

For most people in real life, this test is far more meaningful than all the 1/4 mile stats some people upchuck. The Camaro is the best car for hoonin'.

They are.

Unless Ford changed the tires they use for the Mustang, (Michelin I believe) they've allways been harder. I don't get it.

Oh, and, this video makes me really hate torque management even more.

mrray13 · 04-13-2010, 12:23 PM

hoonin'?? Wiki didn't offer a definition for hoonin', lol.

Ok, why didn't they use an SRT8? The 5.7 Hemi isn't all that, regardless of what the numbers say. I want the Camaro to win, but I want it to beat the best the competition has to offer, ala the 2011 Mustang instead of a 2010 Mustang. It should have been an SRT8.

As a side note, could explain some of the 1/4 mile difference between the '11 Mustang-'10 Camaro. Just throwing that out there, even though I know it probably doesn't mean squat, lol.

The press cars were all v6 bodies.

ElAntonius · 04-13-2010, 12:56 PM

Actually, if you read, that's a V8 California Special. So the grill and badging is different.

That is pretty bitchin' LOL

Nice contest!

Simple physics should tell you that the heaviest machines will leave the longest burnout marks.

If a city bus could burn out the patch would be for miles LOL
