Looks like the mustang driver needs some more seat time...

[nomedia="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G2fo3KHupBM"]YouTube- 2011 5.0 Mustang[/nomedia]

Not sure what to think.

I love the new 5.0 GT's, but I just HOPE the mustang lost because of a driver mod... I thought these things were supposed to be in the 12's from the factory! HOWEVER, the 5.0 had a passenger too.

Anyone have some 1/4 mile times from actual owners and not media sources?

Definately not trying to stir the pot (since I'm a mustang guy as well), but this video just suprised me because its the first I've seen of one in a real life situation on the streets..

the average guy in a 5.0 isnt goin to run 12.70's@110 in it. hes going to run low 13's@107-109, or right in line with a lid/exhaust LS1 car. not to suprised really.

Lol....

Looks like in real life the 5.0 is still just too slow!

The 5.0 even got the hit, I bet that guy wanted to take his car back to the dealer after that...

when you bought your car did you know how to drive it to its best potential the first day? was it broken in?


cut the dude some slack im sure even you will be seeing the taillights of a 5.0 before you know it.

LOL, not broken in? Are we REALLY going to use that one guys? I mean it sure makes a difference, but how drastic is the question. I love both cars but some excuses are just out of whack. I'd stick to the passengers in the mustang before "not being broken in, thats why it lost"

Uhhhh HELLO? How convenient… They didn't show any shots of the Camaro's engine bay. C'mon

I call :bs: on that vid. Stock Maro my ass.

Guys just believe me when I say its stock, really there's no need to pop the hood. :rollseyes

Im not saying that it couldn't happen but I need to see more than the exterior of a Camaro to believe its stock.

Its pretty damn simple... passenger. The 5.0's advantage is the weight difference, toss in a passenger and its gone... so? Besides there's no way of knowing both cars were stock. Who's to say the Camaro didnt have a bolt on or two?
