Tommy, I think not letting have drag radials while you have the luxury of launch control stacks the deck WAY in your favor. Even with those it will be a close race. Some of those guys on Ferrari chat really underestimate hat thee cars can do. My Factory Five has an almost stock 5.0, 250HP maybe on a great day, and it runs in the upper twelves with street tires. That was the first and only night I had the car on the track. I can't wait to see the video. One more thing, I saw a 458 heading to Road Atlanta and hadn't heard of one. When I got home I had to look up what it was. Bad ride you have there and good luck to both of you and most of all stay safe.
