Mustang is just a better built car. It takes a 6.2 to run with the 5.0. It is so sad that GM is going to stop making the Camaro. I love the American muscle cars. I hope they do not bring it back as a EV. The Mustang EV is a joke. Just my opinion.

Sure..my 900hp ZL1 would love to. But who wants a crap stang? It’d just run over folks😂

[@bb55idvo]

As a car enthusiast, automotive worker, and 10 year drag racing veteran, this is my take. The first roll race the revs were too low for the stang, the Big Chevy V8 on the other hand was right in the torque sweet spot and pulled way. The 2nd roll race put the mustang in its sweet spot, smaller, multi valve V8 loves to rev, and it pulled away. 1st drag race the Camaro went up in smoke... which happens. (Even with drag radials on a prepped track I've done it more than once). But, the 2nd drag race, it sounds to me that he may have bogged the Mustang.... which once that is done in such closely matched cars... game over. I have heard many complain about the stock GT manual, and could see him not shifting it aggresively because of it. EIther way, nice to see both cars run through their paces.

[@benjaminmatute9085]

Respect. And you put it in a way I could never.

Camaro will take the Mustang off the line EVERY TIME with more torque. That is facts. Mustang cannot outrun the Camaro in any scenario although it's close in the 1/4 mile.

Great video Sam. I have a SS Camaro and a S550 Mustang Gt. They are both great cars, very similar with some differences. Ford has been manipulating horsepower and torque numbers since 2022, The Camaro has been 455 and 455 from 2016 til now. The torque does make a big difference, so does gear ratios, tires and clutches. Ford offers standard 3.55 gears and 3.73 gears which also is a factor. The Camaro running a 4 second 0 to 60 with a manual is rare, 4.2 is normal and 4.3 for the manual mustangs from 2015 to 2023, invariably. Camaros usually shift well invariably, the Mustangs are inconsistent. Some shift great and others terrible, there are several versions of the MT82s that also factor in.

Appreciate the video. Not apple to apples though breh. GT PP would be the minimum for that to be a fare race. You need to bring the performance pack to that fight when you can find an S650. You were handicapped with allseason tires, not the Summer tires on the PP, lower gear ratio which was really the problem with the transmission which is like 3.55 not 3.73 like the PP MT82 could still compete with GT PP Dif and ratio, The suspension was also the stock trash springs and shocks that buck like mustang literally on a manual, Not sure but I know the 1LE suspension is way stiffer and likely has Magnetic Controls shocks as well. Again grateful for the content, but please run it back when you can get a GT PPS550 , Mach 1 or PP S650 next time you race the 1le.

[@MaxwellReviresco]

Fast 2-3 up shifts aren’t a thing for average drivers. In the 2nd run, the shift was much quicker though. Driver is king when it comes to MT cars. Just comparing the first two runs at that shift point shows you there 1-2 car length to lose or gain depending on how good of a shifter you are, and how much seat time you have in a car. It must be hard trying to speed shift any car if you’re only just driven it.

[@JordonPatrickMears11211988]

Both cars are amazing but I after watching some of these shows with guys comparing two brands I feel they should use the car to its potential, if the mustang has sport, drag, and track mode and the Camaro just have sport, sport plus then show us what they do in the different modes! And compare it to one another. Especially when your drag racing the cars, now on the road race side the gearing would obviously different in certain packages. If it has a drag option on the mustang then 9/10 it has a 3:73 gear which completely changes that car performance.

​@shannonandsheila1403 you also gotta factor in the weight of the 1LE package. All those parts that make it go around a track very easy weigh more vs the lighter GT without a track pack. If you throw in a GT Dark horse with the track pack it would be at least 100 lbs heavier. In the quarter mile a 100lbs can easily translate to a 10th of a second and even more in a race going around in laps. I'm a Camaro AND Mustang lover but had they thrown the lighter SS or the heavier Dark horse the results could have been even worse for the Mustang.

Until you get into the Shelby realm, the Mustang just can’t keep up with the Camaro handling, even in non 1LE form. I do like the looks of the Mustang a little better tho, not including the new S650. It’s weird.

[@slaterelliott3780]

lol better platform ur living in a fairytale the best coyote is king daddy over any ls how many time does this have to be proven to u delusional junkyard boys have fun building your bottom end to come near a coyote with boost an fuel an fords 6r80 eats any trans chevy made get educated

[@jamesbottger5894]

The Camaro is easily the best looking car by anything the big 3 produces (and that includes the C8). Starting in 2015, the looks of the Mustang were ruined...the '14 and earlier models were much better looking IMO...

[@godsaveamerica2611]

Why is it that no one factors in the rear gear ratio? There’s only one offered in the Camaro where in the Mustang there’s 3. Did this one come optioned with the 3.73? That would make a huge difference in a drag race and acceleration in a roll until a certain speed in the 100+

[@justme307]

It did not have performance package so it would be a 3.15.

[@tcurtez]

DO NOT BUY A MUSTANG TO RACE IF IT IS NOT A 10 SPEED! 😂 THIS HAS BEEN KNOWN FOR YEARS THE 5.0 IS A SMALL MOTOR. ITS POWER IS UP HIGH AND IT ONLY WORKS WITH THE 10R80 OTHERWISE YOU ARE OUT OF THE POWERBAND.

[@jonasbaine3538]

True but apparently the paddle shifting on mustang automatic is not fast responsive or fun apparently compared to having manual mustang or other cars with DCT. Even bmw automatics are more fun to shift.

[@tcurtez]

​@jonasbaine3538 it's a automatic! Lol it's made to down shift and smash the gas and let the automatic do the work 😂 talking about being fun is a McLaren fun or a Lamborghini fun 😂 people who drive them are downshifting and smashing the gas lol welcome to 2024 😂​@jonasbaine3538

[@justme307]

OH REALLY?

[@evanhill9442]

As a person with a 6 speed manual S650 you are wrong💀 yes, 10 speeds are a little quicker but the 6 speeds not horrifically slower, they still win races, and are still more fun to drive. Sam just can’t drive manual that’s all.

[@jonasbaine3538]

@@tcurtez wrong. the mustang automatics are known for having problems paddle upshifting sometimes and lagging behind. Tons of people like paddle shifters and expect a 450hp car to be fun to drive in all aspects. This isn’t a grocery car Honda mazda whatever that just happens to have paddle shifters. It’s a mustang !

One thing much better about the Camaro is it actually has gauges not a digital pad.

Please learn to shift properly that's the difference.

Does the mistang prevent you from no lift shifting, use to no lift shift my Conquest, and my v8s10. Not sure why you wouldnt be able to do the same in a new and im sure much better shifting vehicle

Back in the 90s to get this kind of power one would need a fully built engine.

[@lsjionredlinesupercharged2049]

Camaro baby

[@luciusael]

Kuddos to Chevy for making a product that can keep up with or exceed Ford's newest generation. Of course, this doesn't include the Dark Horse, which would have been a different race -- but then again, the Dark Horse is supposed to be a slight level above the typical Mustang GT/Camaro SS category. Now, on the track, I'd say the SS 1LE will give the Dark Horse a run for its money.

[@jeffnoob8448]

I own both..... because Merica ❤

[@perjess1969]

Ford really didn’t think that Mustang interior out. It’s looks like they outsourced the instrument cluster to Mercedes Benz. I was not a fan of the Camaro but it definitely has the better interior.

Just to need to be quicker with your shifts and clutch. The mustang keeps dragging everytime you shift. As mustang owners, I think we all can agree.

[@thewalkindude7716]

Oh Ford, what are you doing? This is not a better mustang. It looks and sounds worse than the last generation.

[@richunboxed782]

Tf are you yapping abt and on the 2024 mustang gt sounds a million times better than the old generation which was quiet asf and don’t even argue with me I’ve got a 24 gt and a 19 gt and the 24 wayy louder and sounds wayy better

[@fernietheepyro488]

Aside from transmission! Camaro has way mor torque!!

[@thiosemicarbizidebenzoylal2921]

Its the handling on street and track where you understand the Alpha chassis from GM is superior to Fords. That is the problem with Ford vs Camaro because the 6th generation Camaro actually rides on a well thought out neutral chassis that makes it a true sports car. The Mustang is far from sports car status in the modern era. 2024 Mustangs ride on the same chassis and that is a shame.

[@justme307]

IMO what killed the Camaro is the antiquated OHV motor. The entire world, including Chevy except in their V8 line (not including the Z06,) moved to OHC decades ago.

[@sugerhitman1295]

​@@inyoface1641Look at the recorded times at various tracks....shorter tracks with turns the Camaro wins, longer tracks, Mustang 350r due to having more horsepower...if the horsepower was equal the Camaro 1LE would dominate.

@@inyoface1641 Those cars are tuned to do so but the Alpha chassis is superior to anything from Fords Mustang lineup. A simple set of springs on the Camaro puts all variants in a different class in regards to handling because of the chassis.

[@chrisgronskei5416]

Still a 5.0 against a 6.2 liter tells the story about the Ford motor company, they make more power with less displacement bottom line.
