Unfortunately a lot of the GT500's power is negated by the weight of that thing. If the rumors are true and the Camaro pumps out 450HP and they are as serious about keeping the weight as low as possible on it, then the V-8 Camaro will possibly beat it.... The GT500's weight/HP ration is a heafty 7.8lbs/1 HP. If the Camaro comes in at about 3600 with 450 HP it will have an 8lb/ 1 HP ratio... it will come down to how well each car transfers that HP to the wheels and aerodynamics..... should certainly be a good race.
