Finally made it to the track the other night, and boy, did these tires HOOK!! With the car being bone stock other than a Roto-Fab CAI, it ran a 12.11/118 with a best 1.95 60'. I know the car will 60' better, which will drop my times down into the 11.70s hopefully. I learned a few things while at the track.

These tires dont like to be aired down to 15lbs. The car liked 20+lbs in the slicks. Also, the car feels much more wiggly going down the track at 15lbs, and MUCH more stable with 20lbs. What I really need is a buddy to video the car launching so I can see what the car is really doing, and then make corrections then. There was another ZL1 at the track with me (hey ZLWON) and he was running 12.0s at 124mph with headers, cutouts and a tune, which he said was making 594rwhp. I will be taking my car to the same guy that gave him the tune (Synergy Motorsports) so hopefully I can get the car deep into the 11's, just gotta get my launching technique down!!
