Is it me or do these things not mph all that well. CTS-V's have gone 119 stock that I have seen. 121 just seems low for the power? Not knocking in any way....after this video, silver is my favorite color on the ZL1 hands down!

this was the owners first time at the track after the mods were installed and he was having a tough time to say the least. those were street tires he was on, with more practice and a decent set of DRs or slicks, this car should easily shave a few digits off of that ET and cross the line way faster.

Not bad considering they were tested at 12.0 give or take a tenth by pro drivers stock. So a couple pullies, 160 stat, dyno tune, and isolater for a 11.4. Easy enough, what do you think headers, and maybe other simple things would net?

So you never said if he used the factory launch control because it seemed like he hooked pretty good.

Ben was using various settings in an attempt to figure out how to get the ET down. It was basically, 'drag racing 101' for him that day, lol.

he's not sure what the setting was for that time, he was hot lapping the hell out of it that day and trying different settings/techniques each time.

The new 2013 GT500 mustang put 605 to the wheel and only trapped 123 I think. You have to remember how heavy these cars are, and they are essentially on street tires.
