I don't get that also... setting up the car for drifting then doing a head-to-head in the quartermile.

The RB-powered 'stang was really more of a showcar, since it wasn't abused in the movie.
The Mustang that was driven hard in the action scenes had a V8 and the comparison test runs done by Hot Rod magazine also show that the RB turbo 'stang was quicker than the V8 Mustang.

Whoa. Did they test it on the same day? Same driver?

Theoretically, the V8 should be good for drag and the RB for drifting.

This is what they said...

but when Hot Rod Magazine lined the two different 'stangs up at a dragstrip, the rice-burner ran the quarter mile in 13.32 seconds and 109.83 MPH - over 1.2 seconds quicker and 13 MPH faster than the Blue Oval V8. Ouch.
