Looking for some real world real driver experiences from the ZL1's ****pit. Track, strip, heck even crowd pull at a cruise night. Is the ZL1 proving to be all it can be? Post your stories here please.

I am looking for one from panama city to pensacola florida so we can meet up. I would love to have the first video. So I can post it on youtube win or lose. Plus I wanna see one up close they are pretty sweet looking

. I would even take a drive to the nearest quartermile if one wanted.

I am very interested to see what kind of quarter mile times we see from amateur drivers with a few weeks of seat time can do.

I think everyone (especially on this site) agrees that the car is capable of the advertised 12 flat from the factory in good weather/elevation. I'm not about to suggest better than 11.8's though.

Hopefully everyone who has gotten theirs is gaining plenty of familiarity with ther cars. I can't wait to see one parked somewhere and get a first hand look.

You Mustang guys are hungry. HaHa. No, I don't blame you though we'd all like to see some numbers. Not sure if I agree with the whole break-in period for why some are saying we ain't seeing anything yet. If you had that much power could you keep your foot off the gas? No, then why'd you waste your money? jk

Drive it like you stole it. Id rather break it in the first month than down the road.

Might want to wait until more than a handful of owners have actually had a chance to take delivery of their car before asking how well it does at a track.
