I bet it'll be a tight race in a straight line. The Camaro does have wider tires though not by much. And it has launch control. Will the Dodge have that? The clear advantage as far as gearing goes will go to the Dodge. The manual version gets 3.91s. The Manual Camaro gets like 3.42. Doesn't sound like much, but guys over on the GTO board switch out their 3.42s for 3.91s and knock a few tenths off their 1/4mile time. Maybe that's dodge's answer to the Camaro's lighter weight.
Yea it has 392 gears and limited slip differentials with ESP not sure what the difference is. Either way I cant wait to see a magazine with no imports on the cover that says "HEAD TO HEAD PURE AMERICAN MUSCLE CHALLENGER SRT8 VS CAMARO SS"
