I love the bare look of the engine bay. Anyone has a pic of the ZL1 engine bay without the engine cover?

I'm not sure about 11.8 runs with the ZL1. From what I've seen on here, the few ZL1 runs we've seen only managed sub 12's and 11.9's (at best) around what? 115-116mph?....and those were at negative density.

The GT500's in Atlanta were consistently beating those times at +2000 density, basically "hot lapped", with "regular drivers", using launch control, and finishing the 1/4 @ 120-121 mph.
I think a MUCH better visual comparison is:
