How do you then parse your DEFINITIVE STATEMENT that a modded 18 GT cannot keep up with a stock ZL1. You can't, end of discussion.


None of the above. What is misleading about CAR A with MODS X and Y ran time Z? You are entitled to your opinion, but not your own facts.


Pot meet Kettle. What data is being ignored? Was the track on a planet with a different gravitational pull? Did the car have jet rockets attached to it? Was Captain Kirk using a tractor beam on the vehicle?


Why would I need to do this? Others have already demonstrated the capabilities of the 18 GT. Do you have evidence that those results are fabricated?


An 11.31 is quicker than an 11.8 ........



Which A10 ZL1 would that be? The one in entries 3 through 14 on your fast list?





Why wouldn't I consider it? Its the basis of the discussion.
-You claim Car A can't cover a certain distance in a certain time.
-We witness evidence of Car A covering that distance in a certain time.

It dismantles your argument.
What more is there to consider?


Relevance? If anything the fact that you have had a much longer period of time to accumulate times hurts, not helps your argument.


I have a solution to this. See below. Its a revolutionary idea and I think it will gain traction (wink wink) at courses across the nation.


So most racers don't care about any of that - getting the fastest time? good to know.








So can we agree that tracks should now interview drivers regarding what level of effort they employed after each run? Maybe have a slip with the following boxes to check off:
Driver Effort:
"Some to little"
"Medium effort"
"Maximum effort- I did it for the Gipper!"

I can see drivers now:
"Im not really trying here and I will not let this reflect on my self worth as a human being."

Did you really push the gas pedal with as much fervor and effort as was possible?


Im finished. You can equivocate however you please.

Maybe there will be a new fundamental law of physics (yet undiscovered) which will ensure that a ZL1 will never again be beaten by a bolt on 18 gt.

Chevy's 4th law of motion?

Why does the performance of a private owner who was actually honest about his time keep getting used as the basis for all ZL1s vs a unicorn Lund car with "only e85 and Drag pack "? A scientific test was just run that showed the 18 GT PP is slower than a 2SS. Not a ZL1, an SS. So at Lund's rented track, in mineshaft air with e85 and Drag pack the 2SS would run faster than the "11.3". Yet we aren't talking about that. Or the 10.9s that the ZL1 can do we are talking about an amateur driver launching off idle and having some fun but NOT abusing his ZL1 and running an 11.8.

Cut this bullshit out. It makes you look stupid. You won't even say what car you actually own. (Id guess an 88 foxbody). Regardless, if you think the 18 GT is so fap worthy then go buy one. Have Lund tune it and get a drag pack. Then post a slip of YOUR time. Til then GTFO.
