That just not even a fair comparison. You need to compare the roadrunner with cars of its day. The camaro would kill it. I dont know how far in the 1/8 but in th 1/4 it would be just embarrasing. roadrunners are so heavy and it would take a while to get that 318 to it moving.

Actually the Roadrunner weighs in a bit less than the 2010 Camaro at about 3200-3500lbs with the base 318 motor VS the SS M6 Camaro's hefty 3860lbs but even if the roadrunner had the 440 big block it still wouldn't stand a chance.

You'll get smeared, not outrun. The SS has a lot of horsepower, you've got less than a 1990's lt1 camaro, even that would probably outrun you.
