The numbers they (motor Trend) were getting from the VBOX when they were running live on their facebook feed were 11.9s and one 11.8. The best they got on 0-60 was 3.9. The review they just posted must have been some other runs (but as far as I know they never re-ran the 0-60 or quarter mile attempts). If they actually ran 11.5, i'd love to see it.
Actually if anyone runs 11.5 I'd love to see it.
I'm not saying it can't be done. I don't think Chevy would make it up. I'm just saying usually when a manufacturer posts a time on an unprepped track, those numbers are easily replicated or beaten by magazine folks on similarly unprepped surfaces. Not to mention a 7.9 1/8th on an actual dragstrip.
Where are the times for the manuals in the hands of normal folks. There are enough of them out there in the wild now where someone has to have had one to a dragstrip. What are their real world numbers? Did Chevy ever release the manual's numbers?
