Default Ap1 Vs 2015/16 Chevy Camaro

S2000 Family,
Hope all is well.
I have an interesting story to tell, it won’t be long I promise. I’m a proud owner of a 00’ S2000 with a CT-E supercharger @5.5-6psi. Last night, around 10:30pm I was craving some Krispy Kreme donuts. I usually go with my fiancé, but for some reason I didn’t take her with me. For some of us, our girls do not allow any racing while they are riding in the car. Other girls just don’t give a F*, sadly my girl is the former. So I’m cruising through the Heights, and get to KK and order 3 glazed and 3 cream filled. As I’m heading home, I see bright blue headlights approaching fast. You all know what that means; it’s either a freaking Prius or someone that is ready to boast about their ride. As I see the blue lights get bigger and closer I decide to smash into V-tec. As the S2000 is screaming V, the blue headlights are keeping up, but yet I have not seen what car I’m toying with. As I slowdown in 5 gear, I see a sick looking yellow 2015 or 2016 Chevy Camaro with limo tent windows. I’m like Ooooo shit, this dude is going to kill me. The Camaro looked fast and mean. Literally, the next thing I know I’m in 4th gear and hear beep, beep, BEEP. I through her into 3rd, smash into V-tec…S2k is screaming V loud. I see I’m approaching 9k go into 4th, and to my surprise the mean looking Camaro ridding near my rear bumper. I’M LIKE OH SHIT, THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING! I take 4th all the way to 9k and the Camaro pulls off. He did not come close to taking me out. He stop at a red light, I’m making a left turn he is heading straight. The Camaro’s window goes down and the guy asked if I was turbo, I said no, I’m supercharged. He complemented my AP1, and I went home shocked with a nice smile.
Mind you this would not have gone down if my fiancé was in the car. I’ve always wanted to race the new Camaros or chargers and I finally got a chance to race one.
I’m pretty sure this was the 2.0L Camaro.

Possibly a 4 cylinder turbo like the mustang? Didn't know they stepped down to 4cyl to compete with the mustang. Pretty sure you would have blown that out the water maybe a v6? You are probably around 300whp and 2800 or so lbs. I think the brand new camaros are 3600 or so maybe a little more depending on configuration ?? Any who nice job

Probably the V6. The 2L turbo isn't out yet.
