Seriously though, who races on a curvy track? For typical daily-drivers, most races are on a stretch of straight road, with maybe a slight curve here or there, and in those typical scenerios the Camaro > Evo.
Way back when I was younger I used to have the LT1 Trans Am, and it would routinely beat imports in its class or higher.
bob, its not about racing on a Curvy Track.
most cars in the class as the Camaro are Rear-Wheel torque monsters.
you burnout on take-offs, which is already a loss compared to a light-weight 4-wheel drive turbo import.
secondly, you don't have to be racing on a curvy track to want to have good handling.
if your zig-zagging on the highway at 110mhp, you want to be able to avoid cars, or trucks, etc, without
fishtailing and scrapping your car, and yourself

if you say the Camaro will have as much HP as mentioned (400 and 500) that will make it hard to beat!
would love to sit in the seat of one of those bitches and feel it roar!
