Too bad my trip to ANYWHERE has actual turns.
When in the mountains zipping over to Palm Springs, via what's called the 'Palms to Pines Highway', I'd take handling over sheer acceleration.
Even something like the Miata or it's FIAT CLONE, the new 124 would provide plenty of handling fun and would be priced more at the Mustang than the GTR end of the spectrum.
And it is kind of an aside, but at the start of the video, I am certain I heard the guy say something about 20 pounds Boost. That's a LOT of boost and applied regularly will REALLY shorten engine life. I didn't hear the popping of a waste gate in the video, either. Add Nitrous? WOW! Apply that too often and you'll find out if your cooling system is OK. Any weak link there will be ruthlessly exposed.
Sure, in a rolling start, it looks like the 'Stang has the edge. It really IS making a lot of power.
Too much is never enough
