Switch your DIC settings from metric to imperial.

Most of you guys know that I was at Mosport International Speedway yesterday. The Supercharger was working awesome.
The back straight speed was around 146MPH, or 235KM/hour, and that was just getting out of 4th gear. Man the car flies.

Other than track days the car gets excellent gas milage.

There were 2 really fast Porsches out there that I couldn't keep up with in the corners, and one guy in a Z06 with racing slicks that could really drive his car. I did pass a Lambo, Ferrari, BMW, Audi, and a few corvettes.
I don't think the guy in the Ferrari was too happy having to let me by.

Very cool! I just finished a track day last Wed:

Average speed: 57.5 mph – was doing about 105 ~ 115 mph average on the front straightaway (closer to just 105 mph). About 103 ~ 105mph into the back turns, then slooowed down! Very windy

Average gas mileage: 9.7 mpg (I actually had to put in some race fuel (100 octane) since the 2nd to last session my low fuel warning came on). So, I basically burned through about 20 gal of gas at the track!

166.7 miles (2.5 mile track)!

Fun! Most Porches, then Corvettes, a Maserati (great sound, and he could drive!), Lotus Elise, and various other cars. 2 other 2010 Camaros!

I gave up even wondering about gas mileage...all I know is I drive it like I want and pay the price at the pumps! Last time I checked I was lucky to get 10mpg city and if I set cruise at 110kms I was lucky to get 22mpg hwy.

Dont know how the hell anyone drives this car like a granny to even come close to the magical fuel milage posted by GM!!!
