Default What gen 5 cars slow ?

I'm not out of my head here am I ? I have a firehawk thats dead stock and raced 2 friends a 2010 stick with catback and intake box modded and a 2012auto ss camaro's , I am stick shift. I can put 2-3 cars on ither one of them everytime we race rolling , from a dig does not matter..

Anyone else experiencing similar results ? I know there's fast modded 5 gens out there but stock for stock I'm not seeing the power they are claiming ...

I haven't raced any 5th gens, but they are a tad heavier... I know that's a real sore subject for some people, but it's true. Added weight kills performance unless you up the power. That's why drag cars don't have a full interior and sound deadening.
