You can say that about anything. I'm sure Stig could beat me and my Z around Summit Point in a Fiat. That doesn't mean the Fiat's a fast car or that I'd ever want one.
Zoren 370 and Super Werty like this.

No you can't. A fiat against a z at the drag strip? Please. I don't really know why the few Z owners here do not think this is possible. Yes the mustangs are fast cars no doubt but the Z is a very quick car and with that being said our Z's are getting down there quicker but not faster. It's a drivers race as I said stock for stock and it's usually reaction time and launch that the Z excels in thus that .5 second advantage at the tree results in a win. So yea it becomes a drivers race between these two. The last mustang I raced ran a 13.1 to my 13.5 but I got the win. Hope this makes sense to those who don't race.

Summit isn't a drag strip.
