Wish they would have went from a dig, I think that's where the 5.0 will really have an advantage. GTO's for me at least, are very hard to launch with a 6speed. Regardless I would think there would be a bigger difference from a roll considering the differences in weight and power.

Either way this proves my stance that cameraman makes a HUGE difference. Locals around here don't believe me when I say a camera man can make up for a couple car lengths easily even from a roll.

Interesting, I do wish they would have done some digs too but at least they did consistent clean runs to show the differences.

The tranny gearing and less weight won it there for the 5.0. Having 5th as the 1:1 really works in their favor.

Well at least we now know the answer to the age old question..... The mustang is faster

He pulled w/o a passenger and stayed even (even reeled in a bit) with a passenger.

The mustang is 300 lbs lighter than the goat, has ~15 more HP and a solid rear axle. the fact that it is just hanging with the goat with the camera man in the car is beleivable. if it was just the drivers in the car, the mustang would have had it all day long. looks like the mustang is a few tenths quicker than the goat.

im not surprised. 5.0s are potent cars. theyre faster than a stock 5th gen so i wouldnt expect a lightly modded GTO to win either.
