Actually it is 3 tests. Car and Driver. Edmunds, And Motor Trend.

# 1 Edmunds 13.0 @ 110

# 2 Motor Trend 12.8 @ 110 (the one that counts)

# 3 Car and Driver 13.2 @ 109

Trap speeds dont mean anything?

Im not even going to get into it. If you dont know what they mean by now Im not going to waste my time arguing with you.

So which is it? Trap speed is or isn't important?

You say it has nothing to do with it but you are crazy impressed with the 110 trap speed of the mustang.....



Just messing with you..

All I ask is that you recognize that this is a Camaro Forum... We reserve the right to be just a little biased.



All we ask is that all of our members be able to have objective conversations and make an effort to contribute outside of, in this case, mustang threads.

I thought trap didnt matter? In this post you seem to understand it just fine in your attempts to dis-credit him. BTW two other guys I know of have run in the 12.6's. One was his first try for the LSR performance Base line company car (funny thing...he was a mustang driver) They have a video of the run plain as day. Also NHRA STOCKER had witnesses that were challenger guys as well as others. He has also scanned his slip. I am sure plenty of others have hit 12.5-12.6 and plenty have run much slower. The cars average is about 13.0

Trap= how fast your car is

ET= how good you hook up.


His 60fts have been in the 1.9x. A 110-111 trap capable car is good for a 12.4-12.5 with a 1.8 60 ft. Even though trap speed means nothing and all

2.0-2.1 60fts have been producing 12.9-13.1 in this car give or take just off of the top of my head.

Due it. This topic has been beat to death, and it always ends the same way.

It's like arguing with an orange farmer that apple juice is better than orange juice.

Camaro has 3.42 it is not much different.

Both cars max speed at the end of third gear is also nearly identical. 110 camaro and 111.5 mustang I believe.

BUY A CAMARO....do not resist

If you only knew the POWA of the daaark siiide

LOL

I dont' want to close it just keep the gloves up gentlemen

trust me the 3.42's to 3.73's is a big diff i went from 3.55's to 3.90's and its a night and day diff and on top of that i think the Mustang revs higher than the camaro 6800 i think

[ULTRAZLS1]

A swap to 3.73 from 3.42= Big difference

This has historically been known as a waste of time in camaro and firbeird land. Opinions differ I guess.
