Now, I don't by any means believe this is something that will be repeatable outside of similar circumstances - if at all. But I do believe it happened, and I have just a few drag strip passes under my belt too.
FWIW...regardless of whether or not you believe this particular vehicle went 11.9x, there is no doubt in MY mind, that stock ZL1s in the hands of real owners will duplicate the ET and beat the MPH. Might be this fall before it happens, but I'm sure it will.

agreed... the only way that this could have been possible would be if the track was completely drenched in VHT and even then I still don't know if it would be possible on the stock tires.
