What I am saying is, is that the Camaro SS has more HP. BUT the Camaro is heavier. When my FRC was stock, I street raced a 2011 Camaro SS. It's my buddies car. It was a stock 2010 6 speed. We were pretty equal drivers too. In the first run, I did pull a car length or so on him then the second time, he pulled on me. This was whether it was off the line or from a roll at 20 or 30.

The Camaro has about 55 horses more than you...but outweighs you by a good 600 pounds so it would probably be a wash.
He might take you off the line because of the ease of launching an auto vs a stick and he will probably stay slightly ahead unless you can shift like Ronnie Sox (Mopar drag racing reference).

I'd probably go with the Camaro, but it could be a very close race. Take them to the track and find out for sure.

Not sure how someone “sucks” behind a automatic unless your talking road race? its a drivers race only if they were all manual trans or highly modified where you would have to correct with steering in a drag race.

I believe the Camaro is closer to 5 seconds. Even the 6th gens are having trouble hitting mid 4's in the 0-60, and they're much faster/lighter cars.
