Anyone see the C8 go 9.41 the other day? Twin turbo DCT - the run is at 10:46

Getting closer to the 2019 ZR1, which does 8.97 seconds and 156 mph......

How many times did the GM Test Engineers do this 1/4 mile before the car was released to the public?

It wasn't GM engineers for the car above - Texas Speed did the engine after she did hurt it pretty bad- believe she bent a rod running a race tune with pump gas, then later caught it on fire, beefed it up, then had to go with a new dual clutch from an aftermarket supplier.

I know I am slightly off topic. But most enjoy the distraction.

A totally stock car turning 10.7's @ 125 mph.

Micheal, AMP ran an 8.57 at 160 with their 19ZR1 without any power adders like NOS. Stock block and blower. These modern hipo cars are incredible.

throw money at it and you can go a lot faster - so understanding that they juciced it and all for their , well that's pretty lame actually, Initally I thought the message was a stock C8

BTW you have a good eye for the angles, nice pics of the LT1...

Ronald, thank you regarding the photos - I went to a fine arts highschool for 2 years and then studied graphic design in college art school for another 2 years (I must thank those instructors and professionals for my ability to compose a subject and my use of negative space) FINALLY I came to my senses, transferred schools and changed to Packaging science /Mechnical Engineering.
I have taken probably a minumum of 3000 photos of my car... lol
