your 2,73s are going to kill you , i think you will lose, and from a roll its what speed you start at that may or may not help . I think the challenger will have you .

What he said, if you had at least 3.23-3.42 gears I would say it would be close, you'd prob inch him out, maybe.
But those 2.73s are damn awful and being a 2013 this is a 392 car. Changing your gears should be your next mod.
Roll would be best.

Did you guys miss his 3500 stall? Op from a dig if you can get a good hook then I think you'll eat him alive he makes more power but won't be able to to make up for your launch in a stall. From a roll I think you may get the jump on him but his weight comes less into play from a roll and I think he'll eventually reel you in and pass.
Bottom like I think at the track you would et better, but he would trap more. Autos are awesome for digs and the track but the roll is a different story

I know this much my 2008 300srt8 with bolt ons and tune went 12.79 at 111.9 my daughters full bolt on 2000 Camaro with 3.23 gears was dead from a dig and a roll. If auto stick is used correctly in the srt8 cars where they just leave it in a gear and let it upshift on its own are tough from everywhere, mine shifted right at 6400 in every gear on its own after tune. She has a 4000 yank now and I bought a srt8 jeep, I get a big jump but she is coming like crazy on the jeep and from a roll the jeep is dead. She quarters better now also but not by much, jeep is bolt on with tune. Don't underestimate a 6.1 or 6.4 hemi car they make good power.
