Hard to tell? I beleive it or not have no bias towards either as a previous 5th Gen. Camaro owner and now a 2011 GT500 owner in waiting. But I'm going to say it's a driver's race. IT wouldn't shock me either way. But with the 5.0 GT weighing in at under 3600 lbs with 412 HP (versus) the SS 6-Spd weighing in at just under 3900 lbs with 426 HP, I'm gonig to have to say that magazines will probably get the 5.0 GT to clock in better acceleration numbers. Not by much but there is not enough extra horses in the SS to make up the weight in my opinion but I could be wrong. The 5.0 GT also should have a 3.73 rear which helps it altoguh the '11 Camaro was rumored on an older thread here to be getting one too, don't know if it's true. But handling as long as the 5.0 GT has the Track Pack it will be better than a SS for now!
