The new V6 mustang handles better than the 370Z for crying out loud (At least, it turned lap-times at VIR VERY! similar to a NISMO even though it sat there banging off the 114mph speedo limiter for all the straight stretches, lol).
I don't know who the heck drove these cars but they obviously don't know how to drive around corners, just mash the gas pedal. Shouldn't they use a professional driver for these kind of tests? In my experience the car has been as fast or faster than a Mustang GT or even a Boss around the track similarly equiped (occasionally a Corvette). Granted I didn't get to drive the Mustangs so I don't know what I could do behind the wheel. Power isn't everything, just makes it easy for inexperienced drivers to go faster.
