add those to the difference between solid axel and independant suspentioning and you have the things that account for the 246lbs weight difference.
the only question, is the gearing and hp going to be enough for the mustang to actually beat the camaro?

Agreed the optional wheel and Brembo package is going to add weight. The optional wheels really arent that optional IMO. 235 all seasons arent going to hook worth a damn. Hopefully for the Ford guys one of the optional wheels come with summer tires in a 275 range. Also shows the stock gearing for the manual at 3.31 vrs SS 3.45. Gearing isnt going to be much of a factor between the two. The SS may have a few MPH on it in trap speed. All in all should be a drivers race between the 2 with some better tires for the Mustang.
