Just click on the specifications and scroll down to acceleration comments where they talk about the wheel hop.

NO - THEY DON'T.

Well, I don't road course/auto-x my GT500, so I guess I chose the correct setup.
Look, I don't know how many times I have to say this, I AM A BIG FAN OF THE GEN5 CAMARO!!! I have no reason to bash it. Some people like to go on and on about how the Mustang does not have IRS and how that somehow makes it less of a pony car. I'm just pointing out there are pro's and con's to both suspension setups.
Oh, and BTW, Camaro's and Mustang's are not sports cars.
