I don't call a 1 tenth and .2 mph difference on different days and possibly different tracks to be suspicious. I mean if they did sand bag the Camaro they are far better drivers than I give them credit for.

They have run as fast as 12.9 in the camaro.
It is funny they got the best time ever with the mustang in this test. But also got their worst time in the camaro in this test.
But whether it be sand bagging and or a traction issue...it doesnt seem from the looks of the numbers that the camaro got a fair shake.
Unless you are suggesting that under the same conditions that the camaro ran a 12.9 in these guys would have pulled a 12.5 in the mustang...I would have to laugh. If you look at the videos both were done at this same air strip facility that they always use. Horsepower/performance was not the problem in this test, on this day, on this track(same one they always use). It was the launch. The camaro was either very hard to launch on this day and or they didnt care to try for much better. I personally think it was a little of both.
It is obvious the mustang is faster and I will not argue this. Most just dont accept it is by .4 tenths. I would agree by the numbers we have so far that the cars will have about a .2 tenth difference between them all things being equal.
