What I will tell you is I have owned a variety of cars, several of which were mid 10 second vehicles (~130mph). But again, they weren’t any of the cars in question…so it makes no difference in this conversation.
As for what the “average person” is or isn’t able to do…I’ll agree with you. The average person is going to be slower than the fastest…that is always the case. How much is yet to be seen, but a lot of that greatly depends on how easy these cars are to launch.
In regards to you being skeptical…I’m ok with that too. But there is a difference between being skeptical and downright dismissive. Would you admit, running 10.31 @ 124mph (which does equate to being third on the ZL1 fast list) is impressive for a MY18GT with a tune and tires? If you’re answer is no to this (perhaps because there have been tune/tire SS running similar times), what does this say about the ZL1?

A time is official when run by 3rd party tests with instruments or at a NHRA or similar governing body sanctioned event.
If what Lund is saying is true then yes I'm impressed at their e85 tune. To use your comparison, how fast would Blaq's ZL1 be on e85 and drag pack? Faster than 11.3?
