This. High 11's from the ZL1 on stock rubber is completely within the realm of possibility; in fact, entirely probable. 1.6x 60ft times in stock F1:G2's, however, is pushing rainbow unicorn territory of believability.
There are a lot of experienced drag racers on this site, so I ask the question. Have you or anyone you know
ever had a sub-1.7 60ft time on any factory equipped radial tire?
My take is that GM ran that 11.93 on the Goodyears, but the time slip with that 60ft time was one of the many runs they made on the drag radials.
I understand the excitement, as GM is offering a factory Camaro that can hit 11's right from the factory. Ford guys had the same level of enthusiasm back in 2010 when Evan Smith hit high 11's on stock rubber in a 2010 GT500.
