As for the mustang, they all come from Michigan. They all have Michigan manufacturer plates. Auto manufacturers don’t have press cars available in every state for every publication. Had ford been given enough notice they likely would have shipped the car to Florida. This isn’t any different than how any other publication obtains their test vehicles.

LMR and Lund both ran 12:00s, Hot Rod runs 11:80s, Steeda runs 12:20s on a GT equipped with 245 series tires. They all must have lied, all cheated. The GT simply can't be faster than the SS, it isn't allowed. Only private owner times for the SS are allowed.
