remember that your 360HP and 400 lb/ft are at the flywheel.. not the rear tire.
when comparing apples to apples you need to subtract 20% from your figures.
288hp 320 lb/ft and in light of that adjustment and wieght difference... all factors being equal ie same driver.. id say his is probably faster

I agree with Sarge. Reaction time out of the hole and clean shifts mean more than HP, TQ and LBS.
..and being a better driver has a big influence on the outcome. Take 'em to the track and let's see who's reaction time is better. Let's see who can come out of the hole with minimal wheelspin. You can have lots of power under the hood, but not being able to put it down efficiently you might get your a$$ beat.
I've seen it happen many times.
