haha, hopefully i'll get a chance to run one of the LS4 MC SS i see in town here.  or an Impala SS (are they just as fast?).  seriously though, until i get staged boost control i basically have no chance from a dig.  from a 20mph roll on it would likely be neck and neck until i got to 3rd gear, then i'd have an advantage and start walking the SS.  then after 90mph the SS would probably pass me.  shit, after 90mph the SS would probably RUN by me haha.  this car is so hard to launch due to the turbo spooling up so fast and gearing being so steep, not to mention all on an engine that was built for low end torque and basically no top end.  even the gearing sucks for top end.  it's all down low on this car and way too much of it.  3.61 FDR + 3.77:1 1st gear FTL.  i'd love to swap in something like 3.23 FDR but unfortunately, 3.61 is all that's available.  well, i could get 3.94 FDR for the Getrag 282 but that would obviously be so much worse.  and no Quaife or OBX LSD available.  blah!
