This claim was just backed up by Chevy engineers at the drag strip.

Where in the MT article do they say they got a corrected time of less than 12 seconds?

Why does the ignition video say also say 12.1? There must be a reason the numbers they put on the screen says 12.1, and not 11.9x, right?

How much do you think MTs GT500 time would be improved if they tested in a location at 4400' elevation, where an 11 GT500 would have around 75 less horsepower (making it significantly easier to launch, obviously)?
