Not the new GT-R, they have insane horsepower, are very light, and crazy fast. Maybe an older one not built up.
A supra engine is very good at handling any type of boost (turbo or supercharger) so as long as it's built up.. probably not. But maybe if it's not juiced up!
A GTO probably, a chevelle BB probably not, and a '70 charger hemi, probably not.
Again, it depends how well built up these cars are haha. If you race any post and let us watch the video!

This is a loaded question. I mean there are geo metros out there that could kill you. Second you did not give a good list of mods. Converter, rear end, gears. And why are you running stock tires on a 450 wheel horse power car that is going to kill you both on the street and on the track

Like they said, depends how built the Chevelle and Charger are. Chances are, probably not because they probably have good money into them, plus their fast to begin with. Tough to say without a list of mods.. but if you have a car in particular it'll help. Like everyone is saying.. making a list would take years haha.

Yup, similar if their stock. But if someone has that nice of a car and is willin to race it I bet they put a lot of money into it and its not stock anymore.
I didn't ask, how much does yours weigh? The new 2010 Camaro can run in high 12's, low 13's. Stock 2010 Charger you'll take, their slow. Low to mid 14's

that would be sad to lose against a geo metro lol i listed my rear end and gears..i said there stock for now..which is 2.56 gears(yeah i know really high but im going to get 3.42's later on) its a 2400 stall..well im trying to decide what size tires to get without hurting too much more at the pump lol
I rest my case. Any car can be made fast with the right funds. With out good gearing and traction you are not getting the most out of your set up. As said above this is a loaded question.
