Default Re: Muscle Car Shootout Disappointment

Due to the different transmissions and not all cars having a tall rear gear, it wasn't what could be classified as a "level playing field" in my opinion. Very surprised the Stage 1 won the slalom, but was middle of the pack for the speed tests. As Bill mentioned, the extra weight didn't help. Mustang performance was certainly not what I expected either.

If the Hemi did not have a clutch problem, and/or the LS6 had a 4.10 rear, results would likely have been different. Also, I wish the Judge would have been a Ram Air IV rather than III, that certainly would have improved the Goat's performance.

I really enjoyed the show and thought it was well produced
