Something is wrong with their Dark Horse or that driver needs to go. Edmunds totally misrepresenting IMO.

I am not surprised by the result of going up against a $200k S Porsche with a 3 second or better 0-60.

Referring to 131 mph in the quarter but only an e.t. of 11.9?

Car and Driver did 0-60 in 2.7 seconds and quarter mile in 10.8 at 128 mph.

Comparing a 911 to a front engine muscle/pony car is nonsense. No amount of HP can defeat physics. The 911 carries majority of its weight over the tires and is lighter. Traction is no concern.
These videos are created to feed the idiots of the car world. The types that think engine swaps are as simple as changing your air filters.

That's German efficiency for you. But, for me, the Ford wins on sound and, marginally, looks.
I'd have the Porch and DHSC in a heartbeat.

Their videos are only worth the eye and ear candy IMO. Limited surface knowledge about the cars, poor driving skills, and wanna be Top Gear style personalities

Just out of curiosity, what in that video made you believe they had poor driving skills? And doesn't the driver swap balance the skill factor?

I was speaking more in general for their videos. To be fair to Edmund’s I haven’t watched this particular video, but I’ve seen lots of the others and they have one driver who is consistently asleep at the light. Not to mention they never drag race their auto mustangs correctly. The driver swaps help to even out the head to head matchups, but the times they get are lacking compared to the capability of the cars they test.
For me at least, I just enjoy them for the visuals but don’t put much stock at all into the results they achieve

I think the Porch is rwd. But they manage traction very well.
