http://www.camaro6.com/forums/showthread.php?t=518611 The "+1s" on this thread are only to get the topic on the poll. We've crossed that hurdle already. (I see a couple of you guys are new. Once you click the link, look for the poll directly above the first post.) Thanks for the support guys!

I thought some one from gm was "ballet box stuffing" the way the other topic was neck and neck with this one

I was beginning to wonder myself. Apparently the supporters of the A8 topic did some campaigning to get those votes... So I spent my whole evening yesterday making sure all of the ZL1 owners also knew about the poll. I'm really hopeful that Al and his team will see how popular both topics are and simply answer both questions for us this month.

So what you’re saying is an a10 is worth almost half a second in the 1/4? So if GM decided to put the a10 in the ss, it’ll run 11.4-11.5? A few weeks ago I raced a hellcat challenger in the 1/4, me with full bolt ons and street tires (I have a c7 z51 now, btw) vs him with tires. He ran 11.0’s to my 11.2. Auto hellcats with tires seem to be in the 10.8 range. Again, not arguing the manuals are equal in the 1/4, I agree with you about that, I’m just questioning the variance in times. I think the only hope an m6 zl1 has against an auto zl1 is from a roll. Even the m6 stays above 5k rpms from a roll from the right speed in the right gear. Even though the a10 shifts faster than any human could in a manual, as its shifting though those gears, it will hit one and be lower in rpms than an m6. If you want proof, check out the m6 vs a10 on motor trend when the compared them on a road course. On the last straight you can see both cars exit the last turn at almost the EXACT same speed, with the m6 actually crossing the line 3-4 mph faster. That’s not scientific by any means, don’t get me wrong, but it can be a loose way to gauge both cars acceleration from a rolling start. I think with a competent driver, an m6 will probably still lose to an a10 from a roll, but I think it’ll definitely be a lot closer than it is in the 1/4 Quote:

It seems to me like the systems are attempting to help the car maintain/regain traction and ultimately help the driver maintain control. It just doesn't feel like they are tuned optimally.

This has my vote. I've been driving manual cars for 25 years and I do find starting this car (sometimes) difficult - like its pulling throttle for some reason. I have found myself adding in extra gas pedal to compensate but the net result is more slipping clutch at start and I dont like that. It needs to be more linear/natural.
BTW, I do not launch hard in my car often, I'm just referring to daily driving.

I also voted in support of Mr. Lambert and fellow M6 ZL1 M6 Constipationists.
My 1LE should be here shortly and IF I experience this KNOWN FACTORY DEFECT and IF the Dealer cannot fix the issue I WILL ENACT THE LEMON LAW AND PURSUE A FULL REFUND. Get thus !@#$% FIXED! |
