Default Camaro vs Porsche vs VW R32

Hello guys, my brother kept talking down on camaros and LS1 and such as, he owns a VW R32 his friend owns 2007 porsche carrera S ...
Now I have a race coming up maybe from dig - 400 meters

My camaro is stock except for the basic tune and removed catalytic converters.

Porsche 100% stock

VW has HPA cold air intake, borla exhaust system and tuned via V-Switch

Any ideas who would pull ??


Cheers

You better have no traction problems at all from a dig cause that Porsche won't.

The r32 is awd and what find with them mods can run as low as 13.5-13.7. It might put up.a better fight then you think in a 1/4 dig race if you don't hook and drive perfect. Stock they run low 14's at best.

from a roll you should walk the r32, from a dig like ohio says if you cant hook hell get you until you can hook.....

Carrera S traps in the 115 range. He's going to walk you.

R32s are slow as *****. It's an E-AWD system which sucks for launching. They don't usually cut better than 1.9-2.0 60's which shouldn't be hard to match.

If you can launch without spinning I think you'll do well against the porsche and might even surprise him. The VW will be bringing up the rear.

The 07 is a first generation 997, it won't quite trap 115.

Carrera S = slow r32= slow. I say you will take them both. First you, then carrera then vw. I ate up a carrera s4 from a dig... Just launch good and you'll be fine.
