MT sept issue - first test
3.9 0-60, 12.2 @ 117.something and 104 ft 60-0. Oh, 1.14 g on the skidpad. They said a huge improvement in the interior, the slushbox was pretty good, Z51 package "a little jarring on public roads" and loved the mag shocks on the track. Hopefully my paper issue will get here soon so I can scan. Got this from cf.com - someone got their iPad issue with the first released testing results. Guess this means the embargo is lifted and we should see more test numbers soon from the other guys.

thinking once people have them u will see 11.8 quarter miles
1.14G skidpad an instant because that seems really high for average |

wonder if they doing these 0-60 and quarter mile runs on drag strip or regular road.. and wonder if these times corrected for perfect weather and altitude.. magazines usually do that |
They did testing at a variety of locations but sounds like the instrumented stuff was at California speedway. I would anticipate that those are corrected numbers - yes, the major rags do that. Here in my neck of the woods (Maryland) you've got Budd's Creek (MD Int'l) @ 80' so numbers will be significantly different there.

Thanks for sharing, tried doing a search online to see if someone scanned it, but didn't find anything.
Can't wait to start reading more about the vehicle. I'm set on one, just may have to wait a year. |

Short version? Mr. Hendricks should be getting his $1,000,000 serial number 001 Corvette Stingray from Bowling Green pretty soon ;) |

OK - here's a direct link to the MT review. Hopefully C&D, R/T and Automobile aren't far behind. |
