I think the V6 Mustangs are the cars that people really need to look out for in terms of "cars that are really much faster than I thought they would be." A lot of people dismiss them but they are already in the 12s on bolt ons and they are coming out with supercharger kits for them putting down 400+ whp.

Bottom line is on the street, anything can happen. On the track you might get lucky every now and then (but then again, who is actually racing at a Test & Tune event?)
