13.1 is far from the worst time ever recorded for the Camaro by one of these rags, for example Automobile knocked down a 13.3 seconcd 1/4.

As for this being the best Mustang 1/4 mile time, don't assume it will stay that way. I said it before and I'll say it again here, one of the major auto rags is going to knock down a 12.6 in this car and Evan Smith is going to go much, much faster than that.

Or they couldn't get the Camaro to hook up. There was a lot of banter on this board about the Mustang potentially 'having problems hooking up', but the reality seems to be the exact opposite.

That isn't going to change the status quo at this point. No magazine of any ilk has ever gotten a 12.7 from the Camaro SS, and as far as I know only two private owners have ever met or beaten that time.

Unless Chevy does something with the 2011 Camaro SS it's pretty obvious the Mustang is going to be a couple of tenths faster at least.
