The simple fact is that on the first race the Camaro driver messed up his launch, and the Mustang took him apart.

On the second run the Camaro launched just fine, and the Mustang still won. Now this was with a L99 and its a safe bet to assume both cars were stock for comparison purposes. Thats not taking away from the Camaro..it is at a disadvantage in that race in weight (around 250 lbs heavier) and with less power to the wheels. It had an advantage in grip, but that was not able to overcome the first two disadvantages.
I saw in another powst ss2army has ran 13.4, talk about a close race.
