I don't consider the Mustang and the M3 to be in the same category, despite the cool comparison test R&T did. (Plus, I can't afford a new M3, so that's a moot point.)

Nor would I consider the Mustang a substitute for my Porsches. I just think they are very cool, and nothing is quite the same to me as a huge 'Murrican V8 pulling hard. I was just curious if they would fade their brakes in two laps or understeer so badly as to be no fun. I drag raced an '88 5.0 Mustang for many years, and wouldn't have dreamed of trying to go around corners in it. But I sure had fun and won a lot of races!

Jeff, I'm guessing that guy in the video dropped a wheel at the outside of 3B as he was romping too hard on the throttle and it just snapped around and burrowed to the inside. I had a student in a Viper do the dame thing many years ago with similar but less dramatic results. I'd blame the driver, not the car. High HP + Low IQ =
