Default cammed C5 ZO6 vs me

Okay guys, my buddy just bought this gorgeous cammed 04 C5 ZO6 that makes 420 rwhp. I have yet to get an accurate dyno reading on my ride yet (both n/a and nitrous) but i'm positive it should be at least in the 450 rwhp range n/a. With that said how do you think will do against him? On one hand my 30-40 hp and gear advantage (my 4.10's to his 3.42's) should really help, but on the other hand i'm also carrying about an extra 400 lbs well. What do you guys predict here, assuming equal drivers and all? I guess if I start to lose I can just hit the nitrous in 4th, and say it must be super ram air setup finally starting to kick in lol

Most likely from a roll since he is on street tires

It will be a pretty close match. The HP to weight differences practically negate each other. It should really be a driver's race and may also be dependent on what speeds you're starting from.

Line em up!

you guys ever run ? and I really want to get my car dyno'd now and see what it puts down compared to yours. But i agree with all your post the car feels incredibly stronger and 415 seems to low. Even though it is just a number its a nice thing to throw around lol
