The magazine claims 12.1 @ 119 mph with a rolling start... rolling start?!?! The hardest thing to do with it is to get it to leave on stock tires from a dead stop.

I went to the track yesterday and the best I got it to run 100% bone stock with 110 miles on it was 12.41 @ 115.9 mph. I was leaving from idle and my 60' was horrible and I couldn't stand on it until it was already in 2nd gear. I could see much better times on a tire!

Thought it had a drag setting to help launch?
Remember seeing early GM videos of them testing it.

That's pretty soft on the mph department. Your tune and mods are going to make you look like heroes because I expect to see 120+ mph with very few changes.

I couldn't get it to hook no matter what I did and only got a small number of passes. Next time it will have a tire. No matter what the ET was it MPH that every time. I expect with a tire alone it would go into the 11's and pick up about 5 mph.

Manual ZL1's have the launch control, right???

Did the magazine test an auto or stick?

I believe a tire would indeed drop you into the 11s. I'm just not thinking that traction would increase your mph by 5. MPH is more of a function of power where ET is more about 60' times. I fully anticipate BIG gains from your tuning and bolt-on mods though. I hope to see what the ET is bone stock with traction so we can see a better representation of what the future mods do at the track.
