Default Who would win now?

Okie doke, so I feel I am falling behind now, especially since i plan to go the M6 Conversion/Swap route.

Me- 2002 Trans Am WS6 A4 w/ about 20K miles
Mods- SLP Flowpac, Removed Wind baffles in the hood, QTP LT's, Catted Y, GMMG, NGK TR55, Taylor Spiro Pro Series Wires, Tune from Speed Inc, WDP Crossdrilled Slotted Rotors and Axxis Pads
Weight Reduction- Pads, Rotors, Spare, and Jack
Weight Addition- Viper 791XV alarm system and K40 radar detector w/ LaserDefuser Plus
Tire- Stock Goodyear Eagle F1 GS 275/40/17 (surprisingly good hooking on dry pavement)

vs.

Him- 2001 Camaro Z28 A4 w/ 3.23's and 53K miles
Mods- SLP Flowpac, SLP MAF, Hooker Aerochamber Catback and Vig 3200 w/ GM Basic Tune from Speed Inc. Stock Plugs, Wires, etc.
Weight Reduction- None
Weight Addition- Chrome C5 17x8.5" rims front and back
Tire- BFG KDWS high performance all season 275/40/17 I believe about 5K miles on them

I figure it'll be EXTREMELY CLOSE, and i would HATE to be falling behind! I'm wondering what your opinions will be? I am kind of afraid of that verter, but in a way i find it a weakness because of traction. Tires are rated relatively similar so what you guys think?

he as a converter and better hooking tires, weight seems to be in his favor and you have lt's and he dont, but converter and tires > lt's if he can drive you'll loose.

I was afraid of that-anyone know my chances or got any ideas of exactly how close it would probably be- my assumption is traction will win not really anything else would be much of factor. Anyone got a Nitrous Kit i can borrow j/k.

I'd love to hear everyone's opinions or ideas/thoughts as well. Thanks
