Not sure what the slushbox will be able to do in the 1/4. They note that using LC the 0-60 times (8 runs total, 4 with LC, 4 w/o) were within 0.1 sec of each other. Best launch was w/o LC engaged though, 2,800 rpms and some nifty footwork to get the best hook. Knocked 0.1 minimum off the best launch control effort. Sounds almost identical to today's C6 GS - any idiot can bang off practically perfect 4 second runs time after time with the launch control. A really good driver can improve slightly going full manual. PTM remains the shitz on the track and probably only Jim Mero would stand a chance of bettering it. PTM adjustments seem to be an evolution of the current ZL1 setup except you also get the eLSD in the mix as well now.
yeah i got a high HP camaro.. hooking is hard..
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
