And I suspect the Camaro's G:2 version of the Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperCar tires are stickier, as well. (But I don't have hard data on that.)

My car is old, but it's still a full second faster than the 650-hp Camaro and 1-1/2 seconds faster than the 526-hp Mustang.

On worse tires. Without a pro driver. And with all of 272 hp at the crank.

I'll attach my smug Porsche graphic.

PoTY!
