Sorry I misread your statement

Great, glad to see some have common sense. Enjoy your ride!

All the times I've ran at Gateway in E. St. Louis against other stock ZL whatevers, it was all about who cut a better light. I bounce between 1.69 and 1.75 60' times on Toyo 325 R888R's on 19 X 12's. ZL1's nearly all out MPH me by 2-3 MPH.

Possibly so, we all know how important tires are for launching a RWD car.

You'll run better 60s on an MT ET Street R 305/45R17, but I have a hell of a time finding a shop that can balance them so they won't vibrate at the top end.

I'm sure you never drive your 1LE on the street and only drive it on the track. Yea, we all believe that. Cool story, bruh.

But I’ve never seen you on a track and you did add the extra wing on the back 🤦*♂️

Well duh, the 1LE aero package is for cornering, not straight line speed.

Oh, do you live nearby? Or do you have a spy satellite watching me? Do you want a full list of my mods?

Seems really obvious but you would be surprised how many 1LE owners believe there's no penalty for the aero components.

lol me chasing down zit faced kids

[Broooster]

Fellas, fellas, why is this even a thing? Does anyone here lose any sleep thinking they should have got the 1LE package or shouldn't have? I imagine everyone here enjoys their car the way they intended to enjoy their car, so who really cares.
Although, I will say, I see plenty that go up for sale with very low mileage, so I guess some people don't enjoy them at all.

Oh yes I forgot you modded your car to be even faster to race pimple faced kids on the street. Never out grew your Hellcat days lol. Can you post that pic of your Hellcat again wearing that stained beater? The one that goes with a beer gut!

My understanding is the rear wing is only good for 300 foot pounds of down force, not sure what the front is good for, either way both cars are awesome vehicles to own. If you are a track rat it only makes sense to have the 1LE, if you want a really fast cruiser on our tax paid for roads the non 1LE is a good choice. I happen to love the 1LE rear spoiler and as it was, the car on the showroom floor happen to have it when I bought it.
