Needless to say its all relative, these cars all go about their business in very different ways. What works on one isn't the answer for the other.

Chevy used tall gears and wide meats on the z06 and zr1 but short gears on the zl1 with skinnier meat relative to the vette's.

Ford chose taller gearing and skinnier tires than the zl1 coupled with a very intricate launch control. Also, solid axle's do generally like drag strips so hopefully it'll hook with these new changes. Magazines estimate 3.6 0-60 and it's likely they aren't wrong.

I've heard even j smith clocked 3.4 and an 11.3 but that track was literally a vht field. (buzz from insiders, no proof) They claimed 3.6 and an 11.65@125 in the article assuming conditions most will have. Considering those numbers, I don't think it'll have a problem hooking up.

when i buy tires of a specific size, i buy the ones with the largest actual contact patch(tread width) for the rim i use.
