This. The other thing is that the mustang matches the Z on braking with the Bremo package. This is really surprizing given it's weight. Track races are won at least as much on brakes as much as hp and handling and the stan delivers here as well. I'd still pick a Z over a stang, but it's certainly not because of performance capability, it's just likely a better built car with a better driver's experience. Know how some cars win in mag comparisons w/o winning in the numbers game? That's where the Stang puts the Z, kinda where the Z has always put a lot of other really expensive cars.
