For the mags though, Chevy needs to take a page from Ford's playbook and hire an Evan Smith equivalent. A track should be prepped and a day chosen with the perfect weather conditions. He / she should spend all day getting used to the car's habits. Oh, and they should play around with the tire pressure and who knows what else.
11's guaranteed. They can then sell the published info to other mags so it becomes 'official'.

Yep
Lots of mags run cars on full tanks to get accurate curb weights is another thing that comes to mind
Getting a dedicated track test done would add a tenth from running it near empty alone. Then do Perfect prep. Great DA/weather at a sea level track. Find a 120 lb driver. There’s so many little things the average person doesn’t even think about. Dodge must have done all these things and then some to get the demons 9.69 advertising time because no one can come close bone stock. The vast majority actually can’t even get out of the 10s
They could easily publish an 11 second slip and advertise it.
But they are dumb and would rather make those dumb ass commercials they have now
And yeah anyone who thinks the SS isn’t capable of 11s stock is simply ignorant. Knows nothing about them personally or tracked them. I try not to even comment on that garbage. I know for 100% fact it is possible
