If it was a 2016 or newer Mustang, it was not racing you. Even the turbo four would spank a 2002 2.7 five speed. I'm guessing the Mustang driver was just playing along.

The slowest version of a 2016 Mustang is at least a second quicker in the 1/4 mile than a 2.7 986 with a 5-speed. This probably isn't news to you, but the Tip is not as quick as the five-speed. If it was a V8 Mustang, it gets double the HP of your Boxster. Yes, the Ford is heavier, but not twice as heavy. It's simple physics, Timothy!
