Hell yeah it would be close. Don't kid yourself, stock LS3 Vette is quick. But so are cammed F-bods.

Honestly, depending on some other detailed factors you'd probably win.

It might be close but I think the Corvette will take you.

Yeah the LS3 vettes are impressive. Cam swap headers catback and tune. Coupled with the light weight and they freaking roll.

Do you have different gears by chance? What kind of power are you making? Is the Vette manual or auto? All in all it should be a tight race

ls3 vette's are low to mid 12 second cars with a good driver...should be fairly close as long as you're a good driver.

Depends on a dig or a roll, as well as driver skill, auto/manual, etc. Both cars should be within reason of each other.
