Really wanted to be at the top of both SS and ZL1 stock lists. Probably our last shot at great DA this year.

I sold the ZL1 M6 and traded the 16 SS with Becky D for the 18 ZL1 A10. This was during the big snow storm and Becky trailered the car 8 hours south of Detroit to get past the snow line. It was another flawless deal and Becky went way beyond the norm and kept me safe.
You didn't miss me by much! Lol! You were so close to having the best M6 ZL1 time too! That would definitely be cool, to be on top of 2 or 3 lists.

I too run consistent 11.1s with a good track where I can consistently get 1.7 60s. Hot lapping doesn't hurt your time that much. It actually helped me on that cold night I made it into the 10s. I was mostly battling traction that night. I got lucky the track came around just enough for me to get it done. I have no doubt others like yourself and big dave will get into the 10s at some point. It's just a matter of everything coming together at the same time.

That's a cool car buying story! Congrats!!
