Default LS1 Camaro SS

So one of the lieutenants in my unit had been hearing about a "fast *** mustang" running around. Had a chance to talk with him and he wants to pit his Camaro SS against my stang. He's running SLP exhaust, 3.73s, and long tubes. I'm fairly sure on the freeway from 40mph to whatever exit I would get stomped since 4.10s lower ur top speed, but what do you guys think of a deadstop to Point Wherever?
Who SHOULD win? He did admit that he has trouble getting his car to grip on the road. Mods in my sig

Go from a dig to about 100. You MIGHT be able to hold him off if you're a great driver.

Definitely gonna try to, it's a bragging rights race. He's got the higher ranking pulling for him, and I've got the normal enlisted joes placing bets on me. We're racing for fun, everyone else is betting lol

You need more paychecks in your car... Lose and get a promotion, you need to follow the SOP on dealing with commisioned and even cadre personnel... If they outrank you, you loose even if you are better

after researching a little more, LTS aren't for me seeing as how i JUST installed my new bassani setup. maybe shorty's. my endgoal is a quick, not so much fast, but quick stang that's efficient and handles amazing
