"little" 5.0 is only true on the inside. That is a HUGE block. The only difference in racing terms to me is that the camaros are heavier. Wish I could cut some weight but the gfx I got is kinda counter productive..

With that being said I'll take My Camaro over a Mustang. But the new 5.0 have my full respect!
No offense but your ss friend needs to practice driving, He should clearly win. They are pretty equal cars and the mods bring them up the same way.

lol, good one. :P
I'm just saying with an auto it takes alot of the human error our of it. Fact is, the 5.0 is a .1 sec faster in the quarter but in reallity that just means it's a drivers race. I am still a better manual driver so I would still beat him most of the time.
