But my inability to launch with an aftermarket dual disc clutch (on/off), and lack of a two step, and once again mostly my ability I was unable to get the most of my 1LE. Had I upped the fuel pump and added Meth to take me to 14 pounds 10s should have been easy. But we will never know now.

One thing to mention, if you are considering a Centerforce DYAD read this:

But that is old news now. With my ZL1 I now have a clutch that costs around $350 that can hold pretty big power. And it is very quiet and smooth.

I really enjoy my ZL1. I am hoping to get to low 11s stock, but my initial runs at Atco show I have a long way to go. Best time of the night here:


At least every run I made was faster than the last. I need to get my 60' under 2.0. Not easy with a M6 and the stock Goodyears. But it gives me something to work on. I do have DRs, but I want to see what I can do with stock tires first. No lift shifting on the ZL1! You have to get used to that too. Wish me luck.
Interesting. Your 2011SS with bolt ons did 12.3 vs the Z time on the same track.
