Your brothers feet have more low end torque than the Mach 1 engine, thats why it "feels" faster....

The car salesman wasn't fat was he? That will kill the power you usually feel. Mustangs are real bad about that.

Exactly. When I race people, I usually put 4 cars on them. When I get my lead mechanic Lucky in the car, we only put 1-1.5 on them.

Well since I only weigh 150 I know it wasn't me slowing us down. The wind was blowing a little bit.. maybe 2-3 mph maybe that did it too.
