I would be happy to race either of those '07 ZO6s heads up for ET. It's common for automatics to be 2-3mph slower in trap speed, but still get to the finish line first.
Last week Friday went to Great Lakes to try to validate the car's performance. Ran 10.47 @ 133.2 mph off of a 1.55 60 ft. Density altitude was about 700-800 ft - fairly good air. Very similar to the DA during the 1/2 mile shootout and very similar to the day from a year ago with the 10.44 @ 133 from US41.
I think it's safe to say the difference between the 159 mph in the 1/2 and the 133 mph in the 1/4 is about right since the weather was very spot on. 26 mph gain seems about right for the 441.
