True, the key will be the tune. Drag radials alone are likely only worth about a tenth on a stock untuned Z06, they simply invoke even MORE torque management issues so they hurt almost as much as they help.

The bone stock record stands at 11.3@127+ I think (in decent air of course) set by Ranger...he's also gone 11.20@125+ with DRs only.

the key is gonna be finding that happy medium of reducing the Torque control to a minimum level, while still keeping the car from breaking the tires loose during every shift. but your totally right, they key is gonna be in the tuning of the car. ill bet a 10.9- is possible with JUST the tune.
