Go back and read the ZL1 forum for actual results not the best of the best list. But even taking the list into consideration out of the thousands of ZL1s out there and the majority of their forum more interested in drag racing than track racing, we have 12 passes in 5 years? The conclusion is your car can have all the power in the world but unless you are running a true DR your chance for a great pass is very slim. All the power players including the last GT500, Hellcat, present ZL1 and future ZL1 need a DR or incredible track prep such as what can be had at a private track rental.

Think of it this way if I go out and run a 13-sec pass in a car that is supposed to run 11s do you think I want to add that time to the list?
