That is 60' times and not 0-60mph times. Like my 60' times are 1.55 to 1.56 90 percent of my runs with the Magnacharger set up I have. Ron I like your thinking.

Every shop I have talked to from RPM and New Era all say the car needs a tune and TQ Management needs to be removed bottom line, even Vengeance confirms it. If you don't want to tune and lose your warranty you will have a awesome 11.2-11.40 stock car, which is still pretty great. I went into a panic thinking this car was a bust in the last two weeks and almost cancelled my order to buy a z06, but now I'm seeing the potential.

Trolling? In which way?

I wish my previous blower car ran as consistently on back to back runs. Pointing out that the back to back runs had near zero effect is a positive thing for ZL1 owners.

Pointing out that some owners may be disappointed by the limit of ~1.7-1.8 60' times even with drag radials is not trolling. I even mention that some owners may see this as a positive that drag radials may not be necessary since the gains appear to be so minimal. Again, not necessarily a negative thing for owners looking to keep it stock.

Consistent 1.7-1.8 60' is pretty cool and is nothing to sneeze at. It just sucks for those owners who want to squeeze out every ounce of performance.

I don't think asking for weather data he calculated from is trolling either.

That's what I want to hear, this new Transmission getting figured out will be what controls the speed at which I modify my ZL1 once I get it. I'll happily leave warranty land if the tranny can hold up to a bit more hp.

"Can you post the weather data? A few different sources show 69*-71* and 30.10-30.20 barometer at those times, and 350'-450' elevation."

Your going out your way and doing home work for what reason? Asking the guy to post his weather data? Who cares, the car is consistently in line with all the times that have been posted... correct or am I wrong?

You mention a few different sources you referenced. To me this is work your putting in so you can troll or prove someone wrong. Call it what you want.

LOL that is a stretch. You're going to have to come up with something better than that. Try again.

It's the same when people post up dyno sheets and correction factor is not listed. The only difference is weather is readily available widely on the internet. Posting the DA/correction factor is very imporrant.

Ask that bloated one trick pony to make a turn, it's game over. GM has said numerous times this isn't just a 1/4 mile car. It's a 1/4 mile car, it's a fast street car, it's a car that can hang on road courses/tracks. It's the hat trick of performance.

For what it's worth I know 2 people that traded their Hellcat's in because they were constantly at the dealerships for rattles, vibrations, driveshaft and rear differential issues. One bought a C7 ZO6 and the other is waiting on his ZL1 to arrive.

This may have been addressed before but with all the six speed cars out for awhile what are they running? With or without drag radials.
