My arguement was in the handling department (not straight line speed). I think most will agree the Camaro will have an advantage at the drag strip. But on a road course or racing in the twisties, the 370z will have the advantage.

The Camaro's 3900 lbs will really hurt its handling abilities. The Camaro SS runs similarly sized tires as the 370z, but it weighs 500+ lbs more. So which car do you think will handle better and get around a track faster?
I guess we will find out when it actually comes out and get's tested. I wished the z had more TQ though.:lezbun:/
