I know this lol. But I was just addressing that put the same skilled drivers in both cars and the weight will become an issue for the SRT8.

How many miles have you put on your Camaro 1/4 at a time?

How many miles have you just cruised around?

See my point?

3/10ths of a second is about a blink of an eye. I could care less if it's that close. I'm no arm chair drag racer.

I wanna look good and be comfortable cruising around and have enough grunt to set me back in the seat.

I wouldn't consider any of these cars slow, Mustang GT, Camaro SS, or Challenger R/T / SRT. Anything with 400HP + is gonna be fun. The current Mustang GT is only 315, but seems to get it to the ground quickly.
The Ford has the horsepower advantage against a Z06, but what makes the Z06 a faster car is it's WEIGHT advantage. However, I don't race my Camaro very often or nor do I tend too and I see your point but don't see how's it's relevant to the situation I'm talking about. Of course none of those cars are slow but some are faster than the others.
