Default Strange Vids inside (new 5.0)

Anyone else find these videos a bit weird? Like either the driver of the 5.0 wasn't trying very hard or that's one beast of a 2v? I was expecting hardcore rapage...but it was almost like it never came..?? I smell something fishy with these runs...

It depends what mods are on the 2V. Also, the 5.0 has a passenger in it(appears to be only the driver in the 2V). Plus, the 5.0 may not be broken in yet, and it may have 3.31 gears.

I never trust people when they say they have bolt on's. I used to use that line all the time with my old car and it was supercharged. I did bolt it on plug and play deal LOL!!

That is true...I suppose the term "bolt ons" is subject to opinon. But assuming he has the standard bolt ons that normally people relate that term to (I/H/E/gears/tune) I still think it should've been a lot different of an outcome given the 100+whp advantage

First video seemed reasonable. The 5.0 was pulling nice at the end.

Probably a 2011 v6 in the video!

That first vid actually showed a decent pull by the 5.0. He simply could have been a noob and been in the wrong gear in the second one.

I don't care, there isn't enough evidence to support any claims...not enough info either
