edit :2011 mustang, sorry

 

Like all Mustang enthusiasts, I can't wait until tomorrow (late night that is). I've been visiting the Camaro forums and they're starting to sweat...wondering what GM is going to do to counter this new Mustang threat.

 

my GM enthusiant friend says their updating the LS3 with something for 2011..

 

WTF are these sentences all about?

I found this disturbing when I read it. Are they trying to interject politics and suggest the the 'tax payers' would root for the Maro. But the Mexican media had no such allegiance.

So its patriotic now to root for teh Camaro.

If buying a Mustang makes me un-American, then maybe I should get a 2011.

 

I completely skipped over that part and just got to the part where they said the stang was faster lol

 

I'm sorry. I just can't read 'journalists' of any kind anymore (news, sports, or auto) without seeing their bias in print.

I'm glad its faster. I'm very happy about it. But the author is an idiot for trying to say 'too' much about what he thinks is happening.

 

He is no doubt an idiot. He acts like we wanted GM to have our money

 

The guy that wrote the article sounds like a tool bag. But good news for the Mustang at least!

 

I thought he was just being sarcastic or tongue in cheek.

 

Who cares about the writer's sad attempt at humor. The Mustang beat the Camaro!

 

Rooting for the camaro, because it comes from a failed and bailed out company, is the kind of thinking that caused the failure in the first place. What an idiot. And what a pleasure to see a maro get stomped. Good to see the speed so far up on the failaro in the 1/8 (which is not really a drag race in my book) should be even greater on the big end with the Stangs gearing.

 

pretty pathetic times though for both cars, i for one am dissapointed.

 

Well when you look at it this way, this is what a average driver, with no racing skills will do with the cars. IMO, it a great test.

 

does it matter? they're still a government owned car company selling polished turds to iddi-ots

friends don't let friends drive GM

 

mph shows which cars really faster anyway, 3mph's a pretty good gap in just 1/8th of a mile

 

Pretty exciting! Can't wait for Monday to see real 1/4 mile results.

 

Unprepped surface on a temporary track that may or may not be an accurate 1/8th mile. The only thing that you may be able to get from this is comparing the two under like circumstances.

Plenty of time for the real thing later.

Not much longer now !!!!

 

Yep. Alarm is set lol

 

I took no offense at this statement; I just view it as a writer trying to juice up the story with some flavor.
Surely some people will want the Camaro to win, others will want the Mustang to win. As a tax payer, I don't want to see Camaro fail (maybe that is all he was going for) and I am glad they have fans. Also, I think his article was leaning towards the fact that the Mexican govt. had no pony in the race either way, so they should be the unbiased opinion. With all that said, I'm very excited to see how the Mustang comes out (my money is on top)!
Camaro or Mustang, American either way!

The part I did find funny was at the end of the article when they mentioned they dyno test with a bit of a slam, stating that "One pair of journalists—rather than go on the “approved” press tour, snuck a 6-speed manual 5-liter off to the Dynojet chassis dyno..."

 

im curious how these people got away with posting numbers, when others cant?
