If your skid and drivetrain are in decent shape I'd say you may end up towing one of them home. Anything else would be an ill informed guess.
 
If your sled is maintained and set up properly, your looking at a close race with the 800, up to say 100+, after that you should start pulling away. You weren't specific on the model for the 800, but the 670 will be seeing your tailight sooner.

Edit: My bad, you were specific on the 800, but still same outcome, the longer the race, the better you'll do. Can't stress enough the maintaince part, one bad bushing, bearing, loose track etc. Outcome will not be the same. My group of friends just love sitting all day racing each other for fun. We'll make a change, race 3 times at least, make another change, race again. One sled is an 02 SRX that would pull me by a sled inbetween 40-60 mph whenever we raced. I replaced the secondary bushing, and now I take him everytime. Its the simple little things that decide races when sleds are comparable.
