In contrast the SS's 6th gear ratio is .75.

I wonder what the deal with that is... Wait - is the GT500 running the old T56 ratios? 2.66, 1.78, 1.30, 1.00, etc.? See - I think CTS-V is running those ratios, and I believe Zed will run the same tranny and ratios, so I think this will be interesting I don't think Zed is going to run 3.73s, though. Well - V does, so maybe

Hmm...

Personally I would rather the car be geared more to acceleration than top speed. But with the power these cars make, and will make, their is definitely a fine balance.

I'm not going 180 anytime soon, but I want to be in the 11s stock

I gotta' wonder how much drag, if any, the hood, front facia, spoiler, wider wheels and tires, are going to add, overall. I'm still thinking lower 180s, which is nothing to sneeze at, IMO. Zed looks like it's lowered, so that is probably going to help some, too, so I don't really know. I believe LSA is still making power at redline, so I'm sure it's going to rip pretty good!

I wouldn't expect the car to pull at all in 6th gear.
