Spot on. And thats why I said "most". I know there are some that drive and run well. Also, guys that say "I can buy and mod an SS" two totally diferent cars, drive to compare and one would see, SS to ZL1= totaly different driving experiences. I just hate the "a guy on the internet ran 10s and I have the same mods so I have a 10 sec. car". Great car BTW!

Thanks, I bought a nice sized cam and springs almost a year ago but it's still sitting on my shelf. I am determined to run 11's with just bolt ons.

ZL1 Killer?? Thats a joke right?? You could make an SS ran 10's and it wont be a ZL1 killer. The ZL1 is more than a number in straight line mate.

I averaged a 12.5 run but one time when all the stars were alligned I ran a 12.0. It is all about getting to know the car, your skills, weather, and track prep. I raced many 5.0's and bet most of them. I even have videos of me beating a Shelby and a Rous
h Mustang. Those cars should have clearly beaten me but didn't. It is all about the driver and the car. Heck I got beat by a BMW once. Come to find out he was spraying. Street credibility is more important than Magazine Cred, so take it to the track! I will have my new ZL1 at the track after the break in. I'm sure my first few runs wont be anything to bragg about but once I get to know the car then it should all work out.
My bad, I thought you said you had an F-Body. Maybe I misread it since I was on my Droid. My eyes are bad anyway. 400 would be a good number for a 2010.

You could not beat a GT500 with both of you on slicks.

I was knocking on the door with a couple of 12.0X runs in an SS but the Vert would be even better.

The holes in our tops are actually a top secret design that increases the aerodynamics.

I thought it was for extra cooling. A free option.
