Looks to me like the 'Stang really had the Supra until it let off. The video cameraman says "gawd damn" like they just smoked him or something??? I mean WTF?If anything the Stang let off after he realized he got smoked.
You just don't realize how a high powered Turbo works. The turbos take a little longer to generate power which a Supercharged Mustang can do a bit quicker. Which explains why he got a jump on the Supra. There was no way he was gonna win a high speed shootout with out a very, very highpowered supercharged 5.0, and even then drag comes into play with the earlier model Mustangs! I love my 5.0's, I've got one myself, I run a business mostly focused towards Mustang Performance, but you need to give props where props belongs!!! Gawd Damn
