Here is a Link with a 1/8 Mile Drag Race between a 2010 Camaro SS vs 2011 Mustang GT (5.0)

Camaro was an 8.82 at 83 mph
Mustang, was an 8.62 at 86 mph.

In the theoretical quarter-mile—and given the traction limitations of the airport’s untreated surface (and no water and no burnouts allowed)—that’s roughly 13.80 for the Camaro and 13.50 for the Mustang.
