The C4 S...all wheels getting traction while the Mustang didn't begin to get all it's power to the ground until around 100 mph or so. There's a learning curve to driving one of today's mega power pony cars. As evidenced in cars & coffee videos, some people don't learn it well. That, and low skill drivers in both cars.

Gee, it does seem to get under the skin of the Porsche set that Mustangs can go faster in a straight line, and handle the twisties as well. A Mustang 350GTR has bested the Laguna Seca lap time of the Porsche GT3. But like I said, all in fun. My driving is on crowded roads from home to my favorite pool hall & back home. Any car made couldn't make that run much faster than a Camry because of traffic.

Vash, there are many discussions about woods used in pool cues. Not only the aesthetics but the feel of the hit. Depends on whether you want a playing cue, a collector cue, or both. For you? Head to Wal-Mart, buy the cheapest one on the rack. You probably couldn't tell the difference between it and a fine custom...
