That is a 1.2 second difference. A tune and tire and exhaust is not going to overcome that. Especially when these kids sat over here saying that the tire didn't do much and the tune didn't either. They gave the larger amount of credit for that run to the car itself. Now all of a sudden it does a 12.6 in an actual test and we're supposed to believe the tune/tire/exhaust has magical properties and will propel the car 1.2 seconds faster? There is no way in hell that it will beat an A10 ZL1. And I would put my money on the M6 ZL1 beating it too. That is on the same day and same track. I don't care if Randy Pobst, Evans, John Urist, or the Arch Angel Gabriel himself drives the GT. It is not going to beat a stock ZL1 unless it is FBO including a tire and/or boost/nitrous.
You contradict yourself in your own response. As you know, we have already seen an 18 auto with an e85 and tires put out those numbers. Lund did just that. 11.31 @ 124mph. Faster than all but 2 of your stock zl1 auto fast list entries. Faster than several FBO Zl1 auto fast list entries.

Cognitive Dissonance is a bit strong here.

12.6? There have been numerous sub 12 stock runs. Hell, a total newbie ran a 12.1 on video. You don't get to pick opposite ends of the respective bell curves for your comparisons. Its disingenuous and for all your dispositive assertions otherwise, smells of panic.
