Ok that explains the jump. I thought maybe cobra was trying to catch traction.

Good runs. Those new gt500s carry some serious mph.

I blew it up. It looked like the hit was close just a better holeshot for the a6....which makes sense.

Makes it good in the corners .....and my have made the difference on the hole shot.

I think the ZL did good. It's down 80hp and weighs 200lb more and there was only a 1 car difference in the end.....pretty damn impressive when you break it down.

So now leaving on the second honk as op stated is the hole shot? Hmm..good to know. I will just start leaving on 2nd honk and claim its the hole shot.

And the GT500 starts cheaper then the ZL1 at 54k. Last loaded ZL1 at the dealer I seen was 71k. Markup was only 2k.
