I see a bunch of high hp ZL1s, but no times. Why?
I understand that we all have our reasons for modding our cars, I'm just a bit surprised at the lack of track times for all these builds. I can't believe that all this power is only being used in "Mexico". 😎

All of my cars are modded (except f150) and I've only been to the track three times. I'm in the Houston area and we don't do tracks tbh man, it's Mexico or die be it the dig spot or highway rolls. I myself prefer rolls anyway. Most of the ppl I know and my crew I hang with mainly head for Mexico. I think it depends on where you live but Tx is Mexico for most.

Can't say if it's legal or not here but it's common as heck. Depending on what I'm driving (Houston metro) there is always someone on the road (random) who is gunna challenge me be it I win or lose, this is why I mod my cars and live in Houston area. It's absolutely priceless

Most tracks won't let them run unless your at a special event like street car takeover or track rentals. My car is not a Zl1 but runs 10.00's@139 and I ended up putting a 6 pt cage in mine plus a oil pan diaper just so I could run at tracks in my area. Some just want bragging right on big hp/torque. There has been some 9 second Zl1's that have posted times. They are out there

Speaking from real life experiences and the group I run with it's not fear or lack of driving skills lol. What track lets you do 40 or 50 rolls to 150/160? No sir in Texas/Mexico rolls and Mexico runs are way more fun than the track.

I would have to drive over 1 hour to go to the track just to get 2-3 passes in 3-4 hours of waiting. I totally understand why there aren't more times posted.
