John - Yes, it was a standing start. I tried several different suspension modes but due to the loose asphalt I couldn't get it to hook-up off the line. I would spin several hundred feet before it hooked up. There were several ZL1's there and they were running 137 - 138 as well. One of the sponsors. A ZL1 Vert hit 140 but he was on drag radials.
I beat a Porsche Panamera, 5.0 Mustang & a Dodge Diesel pickup on steroids. Lost to a Porsche 911 Turbo S, 5.0 Mustang on drag slicks & nitrous, and a Hell Cat Charger on drag slicks.
Not a bad day in my opinion - I beat everything that was stock and lost to cars that were set up for racing. Hope to do it again next year with slicks!
