How does the zl1 1le ride in comparison to a gt350? Ive rode in a gt350 but not in a zl1 1le. The gt350 is generally not to bad till it hits some bumps. You can tell it's really stiff then.

I haven't been in a GT350. In my area, the bumps were not bouncy, but you can feel every elevation change within the bump on the ZLE. It tramlines, but no worse than my 99 SS did on the stock GoodYears on grooved pavement from big trucks.

Today Motor trend revealed the dyno was not setup correctly for the C8 which is why the dyno numbers were skewed.

I am convinced I could run over a dime and tell you if it is heads or tails. But, the grip in a corner is unreal. I have ridden in coil over cars that were more harsh. I have been in very few cars that have the grip this car has in a corner. None of them were street cars.

Not to start a nutwinging but if we’re bringing others success stories into this, a SLB gen 3 never opened has gone 8.50s at 160mph recently. Get some!

I much rather leave the Internet/YouTube racing out of this and focus on my own runs, I don’t live thru others, but I understand this isn’t the GM way in a lot of cases

Shop car?

The internet said SLB 6th gens couldn't run 9's with boost. This proves otherwise...why you so salty?

Edit* Didn't see Camonly's post. Lol

That guy is actually local to my old hometown(well a hour away). He use to have a hellcat challenger that ran low 9s. Hes David Van Voris and his brother is Kevin Van Voris. Kevin has the YouTube channel. They have some bad *** rides(hellcat charger, Trackhawk, demon, and David the 5.0)

Lol king posts a time slip of just someone that went to the track with a 6th gen then you post a video from a YouTuber that had a shop build a one off turbo kit for him. Funny thing is his buddy usually does GM stuff.
