2008 Pontiac G8 Gt Drag Strip

Just as we had predicted, Ford Boy showed up at E-Town with a modified Mustang. Though the racing was still close, Pontiac prevailed in a best of three matchup: by foot-braking to 2,000 rpm and rolling into the throttle, the G8 pulled a best 60-foot of 2.05, went 0-60 in five seconds flat, and ran a 13.16 at 106.68, while the Mustang was only able to get a 13.32 at 103.11.
