I have no doubt the car will not go that fast but I feel like that proabaly a best run or to use the gay internet term "hero" run.

at the press day 11.80-12.0's wer cut.

seeing that video of the 12.02 that guy posted in a manual ZL-1 with almost no seat time makes me think that this is not as big a deal as people make it.

ZL-1 will need pulley and tune to roll with a 2013 GT500 in a strait line. BFD. all that wining and something you can bolt on in a coupel hours brings you back equal. buy the car you like. period.

I think the 2013 GT500 is awesome but if it's best run/hero run is 11.5 then it no hugedeal. 1k into a ZL1 nets the same times.

I will use the time put down by Evan as the GT500s benchmark. If 11:80s is all he could muster I doubt many owners will better that number on stock rubber. Also all this mph talk is just that talk, If i beat a 500 running 116 mph to his 124, it doesn't matter I won. The average Joes will run low 12s to high 11s with the car at the local strips.
