Hey gang,

I took the 2018 ZL1 out to Rockingham Dragway in Rockingham, NC yesterday. I know some of you have been asking for times. Density altitude was poor at 1771'. The track conditions were marginal, even though I cut a good 60', since the car sometimes spun further down the track. The track prep got better during the afternoon, but the air density degraded. The car is stock except a drop in filter in the factory air box.

[Edit = Added more details]
Factory Goodyear Supercar 3's at 26 psi. I treated them like a drag radial with a 5 second burn out.

Race technique: A10 in drive, Touring Suspension mode, Track - Race mode, launch control 1700 RPM 10% slip, 26 PSI in rear tires, 5 second burn out.

Awesome stuff man.
The air definitely didn't help! She sure does shift fast though.

You can’t see it, but I have my Late Model Restoration shirt on, so I’m not a traitor. I did get some confused looks at the track.

Very nice.

ZL1 is the most well rounded muscle car to date. Merges both worlds seamlessly (strip and road course)

Pisses all over Ford and Dodge in that category.
