Default Nismo Nissan 350Z vs '02 Camaro Z28 Miami Street Racing

The 350Z had some bolt-ons here and there, the Camaro is pretty much stock:

I'd be curious about how they would fair from a roll. I would think the Z would pull a little. IMO

Have they ever run from a roll?

We did two digs, and a roll from a 25 at the camaro owner's request. All the same outcome, Z was steadily pulling away. The roll should be recorded on the gopro but they aren't my cameras so I can't say for sure.

Z went 13.3 @ 104 last time it was at PBIR, it's back on the heavier stock wheels right now but no other changes. Has test pipes, K&N drop-in filters and a nitrous safe tune.

So the modded z beat the stock z28 sounds bout right. After all they are 13s cars unless its on a tire and with a good driver

Looks about right. Thought the Camaro would have faired slightly better, but **** happens. The HR 350Zs are right there with the average stock LS1 (maybe a SMIDGEN behind), so with those mods it's not surprising at all that it pulled a bit. Is that Z running stock gears?

No bottle, the difference would have been much more severe.

Stock 3.5 rear, I have looked for a 3.7 from a newer car a couple times but the only ones that are reasonably priced look like they were recovered from the bottom of a lake. The 4.08 ratio that people swap to for N/A use would be too much for me on the guns. As it is it usually wants to slide a little in 2nd gear.

driver mod needed, my bolt on v6 accord trapped 102-103 mph and I walked a 350z nismo from a roll. He did have a passenger I did not, though.

I **** you not we raced 6 times in a row.

The '03-'04 350Zs would be really happy to trap 100mph stock. The HR 350Zs have gone 107-108mph, and ~105mph is very normal. The one in this race was the latter, and I suspect the one in your race is the former.
