You have a Camaro with a supercharged & larger engine with 136 more horsepower available and you can only run 2.45 seconds faster vs the Mustang on a road course?

Over the same time period, the HiPo Camaro had at least 155HP and as much as 245HP.

Mustang IIs were a low point. I never cared for 'em. But, they sold very well.
Once the Fox body Mustangs came in 1979 with 5.0s the 350 Camaros were slower until the 1993 body came out.
Why does GM always need so many more cubes to compete ?
