From everything I've seen, heard and read, the avg times for both the Mustang and Camaro are 12.8-13.2. That seems to be the range for almost ALL of the times from BOTH cars. Overall, I say it's still a driver's race in any event. I don't want to hear no BS wait till it's cooler weather or wait till it's broken in or wait till the owners have more seat time or rear end gear ratio. The fact of the matter is both cars are out and racing and posting the times. This is real life. Nothing will be perfectly equal every single time. I don't believe any car has an advantage except in a case by case situation. Driver skill, elevation, humidity, temps, gas level, driver weight, etc is all uncontrollable variables in any aspect of getting a track time. There are constant comparisons between 5.0 and LS3 but didn't a LS1 outrun the new 5.0? Where are the comparisons for that or even the LS1 vs LS3? IMO, they are all equal due to the avg time being in the same avg time range. With the controlled variables, uncontrolled variables, with numerous attempts and all equalling out about equal, it comes down to how efficient can the driver be against the other.
