I'll tell you what. Your big bad HEMI will most certainly leave a V6 Camaro in the dust. Good for you. Yes, there will be plenty of Mustang GT's for you to devour. Again, good for you. However, if you pull up at a light with an SS, and you think you are on even footing, you are sorely mistaken. If it is an automatic Camaro, go ahead and kiss all your pride goodbye. He is going to beat you, no matter how well you drive. If it is a manual Camaro, then you better cross your fingers and pray to your HEMI god that he misses a shift. Otherwise, he is going to beat you
worse, and the only thing you will have to brag about is your number of spark plugs.
The R/T Challenger is a better car, I believe, than the SRT-8 as far as price is concerned. Until you start modifying your car, however, be fully prepared to take the numerous defeats you can, and undoubtedly will, suffer at the hands of SS Camaros you thought you could hang with.
