If the italia wouldn’t have had the world’s slowest launch, it probably would have won.

Non-scientific perhaps but all were still given equal conditions. Cool to watch. FYI, I did predict the GTR before I saw the race. (no bias being a Nissan owner) I saw no Z’s there? Must have been afraid. Nice to know that I would’ve placed in the top 7 with many other members even higher than that. Dollar for dollar, I think the Z is quite the value. Didn’t see the SRT class represented in the vid though? Sorry Jack. Up for local 4 Way. How about down Genesee in front of the airport?

P.S.-Where would Cougar and Turbociv be in that one? I would guess we’d see some nice aerial shots of four dark tire marks halfway down the runway. Let’s wait for the 11 car drift so I can include Choda.

SRT Challengers (2012s) have been known to run mid 12s. Nothing too impressive.

The GTR continues to impress… it’s probably one of the cheaper cars there too… certainly less than the SLS, Ferrari, Audi, Porsche

I didn’t know they were that fast. I do know that if the world was about to end the ZR1 ripping down a track is probably what it would sound like.

I’d like to stand in the middle of the runway right near the finish. It’s way safer than a bike jumping over a stationary car.

On what tires? I certainly don’t see a street tire ZR1 doing that on a runway. Maybe with the extra traction of a grippy drag strip or slicks. C&D’s best with the ZR1 was 11.7. 2 tenths better than this race but that’s multiple attempts.

Don’t drive it like a pussy lol. Obviously not every 65 year old man can drive a ZR1 to a sub 11 second quarter mile, but that doesn’t mean it can’t be done. I also realize that this is done on a drag strip not a runway but the car would still place first in my mind with a capable driver.

GM says the ZR1 will do 11.3 at 132.

Like I said, traction of a prepped drag strip can’t really be compared to this video.

They tried but the GTR left pieces of transmission all over the strip before the Vette got to launch.
