Do you start out using 2nd gear when competing in Auto Cross too I've NEVER seen anything like this in ANY Advertised HI-PO Car EVER. (Not directed at Mr W) Apparently, Dodge (Et Al) has a larger and more active set of Balls then the Legal Dept and Bean Counters at GM, (as the Dodge Demon SRT doesn't BOG). Point being; Although, The Demon is an Auto Trans Car. but it still puts a 9 sec Car on the Street TRUSTING OWNERS TO USE IT PROFESSIONALLY. Just saying Mr P/H = Calls 'em likes he see's 'em. |

The demon, hellcat, and mustang all don’t carry a warranty at the track, unlike the camaro.
Tradeoffs. |

Been on these boards since June and I haven’t seen one post of a warranty claim denied on an unmodified stock car. <shrug> Seen a couple borderline BS dealer denials but those all were modded cars.
All the while dozens of reports of kitties and stangs dropping shalfts left right and center... Some might not like it, but Al’s team did a fair job of protecting the car from the driver... but I agree they were overzealous with the TM on the Z M6 ELSD cars. |

Here's just ONE of MANY VALID New Camaro Warranty claims that were DENIED by GM; Quote:

And no, I don't start in second...you're also typically allowed a rolling launch into the start gate, and IF this issue stutters the car (which it never did for me, at least not that I noticed...probably because it's not a prepped surface.), it won't again for the entire rest of the course...a long 30-50 seconds or more of turns and technical driving demands that have nothing to do with the launch. A road course is even less of an issue...so I maintain - this may only affect anyone wishing to drag race their M6 ZL1. |

Yours is a 2018. Have you tried the 0-60 timer? If not, give it a shot using the PDR. Would love to see if you bog and you get better than a 3.9 -Bobby

And for the next couple of months...the car is "sleeping", so it'll be a while...but I will. At no point have I denied that there is difficulty launching...you all have made that abundantly clear. I just thought the comments about a hill climb and autocross were silly. |
