I'm sure the IRS, gearing and brakes had something to do with it as well. |

I'd rather see any shortcomings in the car that I own demonstrated so I can do something about them than be just another fanboy and let my feelings get hurt. In this particular case, I think I've even had some of my own thoughts and part of my car's current state of modification validated. Quite frankly, it took longer than I expected for the Camaros to consistently pick off the Mustangs as the handling ponycar of choice. Norm |

I agree GM obviously was up to their old ways in making the Camaro "extra" safe with all the understeer.

I love the video. It's odd that the mustangs used to have independent rear suspension, now they don't. I think that the main reason is cost. At the drag strip, I've seen a several mustangs blow out the half shafts. And it always makes me cringe. It's just a cheaper way to go with a solid axle.
I can't get over how much body role there is on the mustang. It looks like an accident is going to happen any second. And hey mustang guy. I don't know about the rest of the guys, but I welcome you here. Still, I love all cars, and these are the good old days. |

I do like Randy Pobst's evaluations, though. It's worth just skipping ahead to Randy's drive. The rest is pretty much useless. Agree on MT's flip flop. I guess Ford didn't buy enough advertising this year, and has been demoted below a Camaro. Michael |

The Camaro may be the bigger of the sisters, but I dont want a girl if she cant stand in her own high heals. If she is a little bigger and can run in them, thats the way to go.
