not that much of a gap if you would call it that, the maro and chally can run neck to neck

0-60 is a small part of tracking a car. Cornering is equally or more important, and (though they havent officially tested the car and got the .96g's which was released... ) the Camaro should have an adavantage in both straight aways and corners. Thus, the Challenger has no area of the track where it can advance on the Camaro, resulting in a dusting.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
