It's an age old interwebs argument. What a car should do under perfect conditions with a good driver. VS. What you can get in your car and personally make it do. Every guy that's never been to a drag strip has a stock 11 second 16 Camaro SS or a challenger Scat pack. Til you ask them to see the slip/

This words should be gospel......"it should do" is a far cry from what "it did do" I enjoy those conversations about how their car should be in the 12's. .....same guys that say they are making alot more horsepower then they really are.

I really like when I see new 6th gen owners who are high and mighty. Would love to race one at the track.

I've never lost to a 6th gen yet. And the only challangers I've lost to are 8 speed Hell cats. I beat both manual hell kittys ive raced. But good lord what a beating the Auto Hell Kittys put on me!

100% accurate.

we call it 'paper races', where they race what the car does in magazines, but not with them behind the wheel.

common convo:
"I have a hellcat, it's a 10 second car"
"yes, the hellcat is a verifiable 10 second car, but you're probably not a 10 second driver"

What mods do you have? Another important question is where do you race at?

Sounds like a 10 second car in good air. Post the slip when you get it!
