With 17CamaroZL1's 1.7s I think he reported still getting some tire slip/spin so he's not technically found the limit yet I don't think.

Is there not a Mr. Squiggles button on the dash to turn TC (and TM) and all completely off on the ZL1? I think my 2SS has one, and the Hellcat definitely does.
Correct. Even with good track prep that allows me to launch harder with little spin, I still can't mat the throttle. If drag radials will allow that, there is likely another .1 or more I think I could chop out of the 60' before torque management limits any further improvement.

With low traction, yes, it will blow them off.......but in a controllable way. For max acceleration, you definitely still have to drive it. If it would dead hook with all off, you'd go really fast, really quick!

Right, to the best of my knowledge. I wish there was a setting that would allow us to ramp up or down the TM as needed for the traction available. That would be the bomb!
