As soon as you see people lining up along the exiting street, you know bad decisions will soon be made.

It's almost as though the Mustang drivers have never floored their cars until they have a crowd watching.

If you look at the tree/crowd, you WILL hit it.
Look where you want to go, and your hands will automatically steer in the correct direction to avoid the tree/crowd But ok, in a Stang, doesn't matter, it is a crowdpleaser that just wants to cuddle the crowd.

Even then, some of these guys are going in a straight line, and when they punch it, the car starts fishtailing and gets away from them. A straight line is not always a guaranteed positive outcome.

so would these guys be driving an auto or a manual?
I would think auto, and the torque convertor prevents fine control over the power delivery, and that catches em off?

It’s a whole package. Steering gear, throttle tuning, rear steering, and differential.

Keep the stangs cupholder free of coffee cup, no problem whatsoever. You can put a pool cue in the car, fine, that's not a slushing liquid..
