I don't know what the GM advertised 1/4 mile times are on the 5th gen SS, but I'm guessing they are 12.9 - 13 flat? So for this car I can see their advertised times as mid 12s at least, and in the hands of owners we will see low 12s....100%.

The ONLY negative I can see, are the run flats on the SS, which likely have a stiffer sidewall which will equate to more difficult launches.
GM advertises 12.9@113mph for the ls3 ss.

I believe 12.7 for the 1le. It is on the website.

They will advertise mid 12s at least. 115+ mph. Let the haters hate who cares. Most of the time it's just jealousy. If they truly didn't care why even comment? Go enjoy your own car instead lol
