Default RE: 09 Challenger vs 09 Mustang (Hmm)

Taking nothing away from all of this dicussion but, a few weeks ago I took my wifes 06 Mustang GT (Stock, auto) and tempted an 08 Charger Daytona for a little light to light action. Now, I am no slacker in the street fighting business as I am old school and can boast some pretty (in)famous cars in my time so doing the L-T-L tango is nothing new to me. Anyway, in roughly 3 city blocks the Charger had me by about four car lengths and was still pulling away until the light changed and we had to back it down. I had thought I would have a better chance since I had a good weight savings and to me seemed better power ratio. NOT....Not saying this was a definitive test or anything..just real world situation. With the Challenger, I can see many a 'Stang's getting eaten alive on a Saturday night!
