i don't dd the car. mon-fri honestly it doesn't get touched. fair weather car that i drive everywhere april-nov (on weekends) if it's not raining. if it was a dd i wouldn't bother modifying anything. i'm down to 3 vehicles now. i was up to 6 this time last year haha. been trying to work on that.
Fair enough, yea mine was a dd when I first got it and still had that excitement racking up the miles, now the zr2 and Miata get almost all of the seat time. Camaro comes out once a week or every other week so its ready to be modded and gamble with reliability. I'm down to three cars also, no more car shuffling in the drive way.

12.1 @ 119 is my guess

i know it's 2.5-3 mph slower on the 1LE wheels. it picked up 24 whp on ethanol, so id say your 12.1 @ 119 is pretty close.

That is very interesting

I have realized the two best mods for 6 speeds is drag pack and E85 tune

the m6 cars have a lot working against them. a rear gear would do wonders. main reason why tire height is so important.

my mph comparisons are via dragy on the street. take it for what you will. the car can't use first and most of second on the 1LE wheels. i imagine a bulk of the gain is from traction itself.

car made 441 on shortuning's dyno (dyno dynamics).
da was right around 800'.
no weight reduction except drag wheels. 3890 lb raceweight.
im car 181 - left side. right side was a cam blower c5z.

car launched hard followed by a healthy bog. that was the first pass of the day, also my first pass on a track since 2019. i got 2 more passes and due to lack of track prep it spun trying to launch it from 6k rpm. mph was the same but the et was 11.7x. i think it wouldve gone a little quicker if i could've hooked without the bog.
you didn't get any wheel hoop? my 2018 1LE was Hooping and spining in all 4 gears badly

no. honestly the car never wheel hopped on the MTs at the track or on the street. the only time it ever wheel hopped was on a gear change in cool weather on the stock wheels. but honestly after it happened a couple times i quit doing it.
