So a 400 HP Camaro on a Dry track will be a similar time, maybe a hair quicker.
I thought the VXR8 had like 420hp.

I don't know if there is some special car you are talking about, but the VXR they had on Top Gear had 382 hp. I just watched the vid.

LOL, woops. I fixed it. I would still like to know what the SS would do though considering the GT500 did it in 1:30, while the Roush did it in 1:28 despite having 85hp less. Which is why 1:29 was my first guess, but who knows what will happen.
