In the videos it appeared that the Mustang crossed the finish line first. But this was done in the dirt (it looked like a dry lake bed, can't remember where they said it was). So, I think times were not revealed because, well... it's racing on dirt. Which is pretty meaningless, unless you are racing monster trucks, or testing truck tires. I guess they just wanted to see what he trap speeds were after a mile. Or, MotorTrend wants to make sure they give Mustang fans some shred of something to cling to, since without that test, pharmaceutical companies would have to double their production of anti-depressant medications.
