Why is the 11.5 1/4 mile still here? I thought that drag strip times weren’t uploaded to this site?!

Short of punching the brakes it’s physically not possible for the 1/2 mile eta estimate to be correct. At the 1/4. I’ll it’s already doing going over 120mph, or 1/4 mile in just under 7.5 seconds.
Since the first 1/4 is shown as 11.5 a C7 could not gain another mph and still be in the 18’s at the 1/2 mile.
Nelno 2y ago @hostboy
It's simple math. If the car is already going 120 mph at the end of the first 1/4 mile, there is only 1/4 mile left to reach1/2 mile. The car would only take 7.5 seconds to cover the remaining 1/4. Since it took 11.5 seconds to go the first 1/4 mile, if it just stayed at 120 mph for the remaining distance (1/4 mile), the total time would be 11.5 + 7.5 seconds, or 18.0 seconds, not 20.2 like the stats show. The car would have to be slowing down after the first 1/4 to take more than 18 seconds to do the 1/2 mile.
So what Dafish is talking about is that the 20.2 second 1/2 mile time cannot be correct for a car that did the 1/4 in 11.5 @ 120 mph without the driver applying the brakes after the first 1/4 mile.
Nelno 2y ago @Nelno
Edit: meant to type 11.5 + 7.5 = 19.0 seconds, but the rest is still valid.. The car couldn't take 20. 2 seconds unless it slowed down after the first 1/4.
Nelno 2y ago @hostboy
Even if we use the 12 second 1/4 mile time, if the trap speed is 120, the total 1/2 mile time should be no more than 19.5 seconds. Even if the 20.2 is from a different test, it still greatly disagrees with all of the other data, making it highly suspect. The car would have had to be trapping well under 120 or have taken 12.7 seconds to do the 1/4 mile.
wallenieswiftie 4d ago @TStat
I agree, 116 is way too pessimistic. A 470hp XJL Supercharged Edition does that, and that is 1000 lbs heavier. A 470hp 300 SRT8 is only 3 mph slower.
Hoppelmoppel123 4y ago
There is a 343 kW and 630 Nm version, should i add the data to this one?

Omg! I just found out what half 96 and half 144 is, and it does appear to be the quartermile trap speed! This page is right!

Wow, that's a super find! I have added the track - Toronto Motorsports Park.
I will do a little article about it tomorrow.

FastestLaps, Can you add the AutoGuide Test Track? There are over 40 laptimes available that can be added.

It is the most capability that any manufacturer has ever delivered for this money.
Chaz89 11y ago
If this data is accurate, that means that the 7th gear allows 55mph cruising at less than 1000rpm!

Even more crazy, the link to car and driver review they managed 30-50mph in 13 seconds in this gear, supposedly doing

Two corvettes tested, two engines failure. Not bad

@br2
I got the V used with low miles for a little under 50k. Dealer said he could have sold it numerous times if it was an auto but you'd be amazed how many people in the u.s can't drive a manual.
When I first got it I was dead set on not doing any engines mods but you know how that goes. Once I joined the forums and saw how much more power I could have with a pulley swap and remap I couldn't help myself.
With a family I figured the caddy was my best bet at performance and room for the kid/dog. Previously I had a evo but the luster of the evo faded pretty quickly. Numerous problems with it... no issues with the caddy yet!
Flabernat 11y ago
@ 196ss Yeah, I also like the idea of a less expensive V-8 power sports-coupe as well. Maybe something like the 130R or Tru140S concepts they had a little while back...
http://www.caranddriver.com/news/chevrolet-code-130r-and-tru-140s-concepts-news
Heck, if they're small/light enough you could just put Chevy's 323hp 3.6LV6 in them, price them near the BRZ/FRS, they'd sell like hotcakes! :)
