Corvettes with their 1950's technology V8 Smallblocks and transverse mounted leaf springs and Mustangs with live axles are cars to be taken seriously when talking Performance cars. And it looks as if the Mustang is going to do very well and leave alot of snooty independent suspension afficinatos scratching their heads.
I agree when people disrespect the V8 in the vette, but in this day and age, there is no benefit and point in keeping an IRS off the mustang. At least put it in the Shelby for crap's sakes.
