Both motors deserve a lot of respect. Maybe you realize the amount of power. Shaving off that .7 seconds requires something a bit more than 500HP assumming both cars were the same weight (~2500lbs). As I hardly doubt that was the case, I'm sure the V8 put out close to a thousand more HP to shave that .7 off. Hell, if his car even HAD 500HP itd probably be in the low 11s or the high 10s. I'm telling you, its a completly different ballgame.
