Default S2000 vs Stock Mustang 5.0

I'm sure people have posted this before...but i was amazed at how I pulled on him.
1st gear: by the end of first 2 car lengths...then it just got sad!
2nd gear: by the end of second...10 at least
only ran for a second in third he was just getting to far behind me...he was my friend so i slowed down and let him catch up.

His car is a torque monster, but just has no high speed punch. before you mustangers get on my case...yes i know how fast and a cheap a modified 5.0 can be. I expected to win, just not by as much...that's all.

Perfect example of torque vs HP. 300 pounds of torque vs 153 at peak.

Torque feels fast, HP IS FAST.
