I know that 12.8 @ 110.8 time from the new GT was from a fully loaded model with the $1300 stereo/sub, nav, heated and power seats, 14" Brembos 4 piston calipers ect. AKA alot of extra weight that you can get a GT without. I'd like to see some no option GT with the track pack times.
Faster cars are good for everyone, it's great that the horsepower wars are really heating up, it makes this hobby even more fun.

Certainly better the second time.
Regarding the options, the larger wheels can't be had without the Brembo package so that will not bode well for the Mustang. (Edit - 245 with 19x8.5 is standard, 255 with 19x9 is the upgrade) I would also like to see the option list on the Mustang. My guess is it had the 3.73.
I am almost certain the 2011 Camaro SS will have a 3.73 option. Apples-to-apples will be a much more even race. About equal to be exact.
Current Camaro owners have nothing to be worried about. There are a ton of mods on the market and the 6.2 responds very well. It is very detuned from the factory. You add a few mods and the GT will be seeing tail lights. Much greater headroom where the new 5.0 will be at a disadvantage mod for mod. This is the reason I went with the Camaro.
