Record held for 1 year on Production Track car high speed, normally asperated V-8.

This video gave me anxiety took a while to get to 150, but only so much you can do on wet pavement in any car like this.

That’s crazy I was shocked how it was still pulling at 140 that thing is a beast is this stock ?

@timhenderson8615 Жыл бұрын

Yep stock and actually in light rain. That is why I short shifted 1st, it was just spinning the tires, even in wet mode.

Nice run. Is this the one that Johnny bowmen does?? My friend has a 2018 ZL1 and is interested in doing this.. I was the tow operator at one of these earlier this year.

Mike Jenkins yes, it was a blast. Expensive. About 2k

@timhenderson8615 5 жыл бұрын

Yes, sorry just saw your note. It was a bit expensive comparied to when I run at Sebring, etc, but highly recommend doing it once.

6 speed or A10 ? I have a 2021 2ss 1le A10 and it hits 140mph easily..was wondering what the top speed was..i heard it was about 175 so i guess that was pretty accurate..thanks for the video

@Nairovirus Жыл бұрын

i would assume a 6 speed

6th speed. I wish 5th was shorter.

@cnewell1971 Жыл бұрын

I dont understand why people say the 6 speed is more fun to drive..they have no idea how much fun the 10 speed is..when i hit mine it jumps sideways in 2nd and 3rd if the tires are a little cool!! Its just as fun and faster than a 6 speed , i have no regrets at all about going to a auto..had plenty of manuals and i am tired of pedaling!! Lol..lambo's and ferrari's are auto's so if its good enough for them its good enough for me!!

@@timhenderson8615 i had an ls3 fifth gen manual and a 15 gtpp mustang before my 22 2SS1LE manual. My only complaint is the long gears. It takes time to rev it up. I wished the gears were little shorter. A 3:91 or maybe a 4:10 would have been nice.
