So the ZL1 could run in the 11's in this case, completely stock.
That is an extremely fast production car and way more than the average guy who doesn't race is used to.
Modding for actual racing will be for the racer who wants go tens, but anything under 11.5 requires a roll bar. Modifying the ZL1 for the street with no traction will be a complete waste of money IMO
