Well after three days of bad weather the guys at PBIR were nice enough to let us get some runs in.

First pass off the trailer we went 10.73@132.3
Second pass was 10.37@134.2
Third pass was 10.32@134.7!!!!!!

60' foot on the good run was the best one at 1.54.

:word:

Here we go again...:facepalm:...:laugh:

Good job to the guys at Redline!

Oh and how did the tank help with IATs?

Very nice guys... Well on your way to being 1st in the 9's...:thumbsup:

What modifications?

:popcorn:

Seems pretty impressive for stock blower. It's just a little guy after all.:thumbup:

Nice!

That's very impressive! Good work guys.

At the track now? Private rental I guess? I'm thinking of going wednesday

Car has alot of mods for sure. cam, longtubes, intake, pulley, tune, sticky tires, etc. I think it is still stock blower though. there is a clip of the car running on the dyno sounds wicked.

that is still just wicked fast. Awesome job.

Converter?

We have a pretty good relationship with the track so they let us to reach our goals tonight.

Dunno bout you guys but personally, the interior of a car is extremely important... How fast it goes in a straight line, not so much... and the 2013 GT500's interior is trash compared to the ZL1...

Video of Redline Motorsports' ZL1 running 10.32 @ 134.79 mph

Even though the 2012 ZL1 Camaro barely hit the showroom floors of dealers, tuners are already wrenching on the ZL1′s 580 horsepower 6.2 liter supercharged LSA to unleash more power. Hennessey, Lingenfelter and Redline Motorsports seem to be in a race against the clock to see who can be the first tuner to make the ZL1 the fastest. Lingenfelter recently ran the 1/4 mile in 11.03 with their modded ZL1. Then Lingenfelter raised the bar by laying down a 10.79 @ 134 mph. Well, tonight there is a new sheriff in town since Redline Motorsports shattered Lingenfelter’s 10.79 with a 10.32 @ 134.7 mph at Palm Beach International Raceway in Jupiter, Florida.

The blistering 10.32 run was made with a full weight ZL1, using its stock 1.9 liter blower, stock heads, catalytic converters with a density altitude of well over 1000 feet. The ZL1′s mods include a Redline Motorsports proprietary camshaft, upper and lower pulleys, headers, improved heat exchanger, cold air intake, performance torque converter and Mickey Thompson drag radials. This bad ZL1 makes well over 750 horsepower and 700 ft-lbs of torque.

Redline Motorsports recently moved its corporate headquarters to Florida and has been an industry leader in modifying late model vehicles including Camaros, Corvettes and CTSVs. Redline’s vehicles have been featured in numerous magazines including GM High Tech Performance, Vette, Hemmings Muscle Machines and Hot Rod. Redline’s President, Howard Tanner (who BTW drives a 1200 hp twin turbo Z06), assured us that this is just the tip of the iceberg as there is much more power to come from their ZL1 Camaro.

Awesome job Howard !!! That ZL1 is flying!!! :confused0068: Proven that it is fast on a track not just a dyno queen!!!That's the fastes ZL1.congrats !!!!!

Moving out for sure. Would be nice to know the mods so people know what they need to do to run similar times

More details to come on www.gmhightechperformance.com and in the August issue of GMHTP.

The RoadTest article claims this:

The sound of this car is just incredible from idle to WOT. Great numbers considering what has been done to this car for mods.

Holy S**t Batman!

Oh man that cam sounds sweet!

auto ftw?

Impressive numbers! Was this on race or pump gas?

That's friggin' awesome, Howard! ... 'Funny how the writer states the run was made with stock cats, but further down they mention headers. I seriously doubt the stock cats part, but if I'm wrong, I'll give Howard $20 for gas money (as if he needs it; LOL)

What fing cam is that I want it

Holy Crap that car sounds good! I want to goto there... with my ZL1!:headbang:

it states that it was done with cats not stock cats, we have longtubes with cats

Car sounds amazing!!!:thumbup:

Would like to know more about the improved heat exchanger. Need some hot 115 degree Arizona testing done on that bad boy? :thumbup:

OMG - that was the best way to start the day - watching that video :D

Howard and all of the guys at Redline are first class! Good work!

more of the mods will be released with gmhtp mag as we are doing a article with the car, We are more than happy to help out anyone with there zl1.

WOW!!! It won't be long before you guys are knocking on the door of 9s....

We have a good shipping company to get the car here :thumbsup:
