Best 1/4 mile ET - 100% stock ZL1 ?

Just asking:

What is the best/quickest 1/4 mile ET from a 100% bone stock ZL1 ?

Zero mods, stock Goodyear tires, no headers, no pulleys, no nothing !

The Camaro ZL1 engineers say they turned around a 11.93 second ET
but I believe they used 18" drag radials. (not 100% factory stock)



Has any ZL1 owner ever run a sub-12 second ET for the 1/4 mile
with their car 100% factory stock, NO mods ?

Please post your 1/4 mile time slips and a video if you have one

I was paired up against an early 2000's mustang that was turbocharged I talked to the guy after, her saw my ZL1 stage beside him, so he said he dialled his boost to max, all he got was a reaction time and a broken driveshaft!!!!
Are you auto or stick? Was that the Saturday or Monday in October?

I was there on the Saturday and seen a ZL1. Awesome looking car.

You bet, I think I got 5 runs in by 3pm. My best was 11.17 @ 129mph.

I was having traction issues on the launch all day, I don't think track prep was all that good.

PM sent.

They were playing with slicks/radials that day, as well - but the 11-second time was on factory rubber afaik.
