Well, I think you are being nice here. I LOVE the new Camaro's, really I do, but we just had a guy run his bone-stock 2011 5.0 at Empire Dragway and he ripped a bunch of 12.5's on street tires. It was a good-air day. Temp in the low 70's no humidity, the DA was real good. MM+FF ran a 12.34 on drag radials, nothing else changed. Show me a Camaro that can run a 12.34 on the stock tune, with the paper air filter in place. It's power-to-weight and the Ford has the upperhand. It has the same if-not more power and it's pushing less weight. It also has better gearing for the track. The Camaro is outgunned plain and simple.
