You must be doing some serious brake standing to be stalling a stock automatic up to 2,300 rpm on take off.

If you are getting 2.1 or 2.2 60' times that ain't bad, but have you ever tried heating up the tires, and then launching from not much higher than idle? Say 800 - 1,000 rpm? That type of launching has produced some of the best 60' times I've seen.

I've seen read on here, a ZL1 owner say that with his completely stock automatic, that his best 60' times where from launching just above idle. In fact I think he has one of better 1/4 mile times listed on this site for a stock ZL1.
