I suppose if you put enough money into it (the Honda) with a good enough driver..And the mustang is mostly stock..

there is so much wrong with that video. It does not show the outside view at all. My guess is that the Honda was given a large head start based on the "baseline" times. Or the Honda has some modifications and the Mustang has fewer or none. Or the Mustang was just feeling his car out, majorly spun the tires and had to recover. Or the camera angle is so skewed that you cannot tell that the Mustang actually won. Or... well, you get the point.

278 hp /
0-60 5.8

Honda weight / power = 12.2
Mustang = 8.7

Are both cars running the same transmission? If Honda is Auto, and Mustang is manual then it might be possible. Most likely Honda was on the red-line, and Mustang was day dreaming. :love:

You're correct, l shouldn't asuume when someone states in their details they drive an Ecboost that they would own an Ecoboost. I should just assume.:lol:

BTW, sorry you wrecked it.

This all came down to the tires on the GT. Did anyone look? 235's. If you looked at the trap speed you can pretty much bet the farm that GT is trapping 10mph higher.

Video shows both lanes got the green tree lights at the same time.
