Besides MotorTrend that got crazy high numbers some how 12.8 in the 1/4 the Stang is just about as fast as the Z.

A little more history......They put the 6sp in it because the consumer asked for it because many folks modify from 3.55's to 4.10's. Having 5 gears with 4.10's would cause straightliners to have to start in 2nd OR start in 1st and risk missing 2nd. With a 6sp it resolves that problem though 1st gear still gets sucked up almost immediately at the start.
