Also,the GY Supercars are designed more for lateral acceleration. Be it the Gen 1 or 2's. They are not conducive to drag racing.

I'll guess high 11's-low 12's on the stock tires & mid 11's on a set of NT-05 DR's.


I know it's fun to make guesses on our favorite car,but we need to be more realistic in our expectations.

And his launch wasn't that good. Some bogging. Imagine what that car would run with an automatic and a loose converter! That 1.7?? 60' would turn into a 1.4?? But then sticky tires would be mandatory!

If you are referring to the ZR1s launch as being near perfect apparently you haven't been racing very long.

Maybe the slow list? "12.618 @ 110.75". Seriously though, a 1.7 60' with a 133 mph is not a good launch. Might say good with radials but not nearly as good as that car should be capable. I've launched a 1.39 60' with only 127 mph.

133 mph is easily a high nine second pass in a drag car.
I think that ZR1 may have had a power adder to achieve such a high MPH with a slow ET.
