What's funny is that this is a manual only car vs an auto only car, and the SS hits 52 in 1st gear, not even 60.. and it still does 0-60 in 4.1. Had it hit 60 in 1st gear at a higher redline, it would do 60 in 3.8. About 0.2 sec quicker than the Redeye and 0.2 sec slower than a ZL1

Except it was done with PJ1 TrackBite and pre-race burnouts. A real figure-8 time for the SS 1LE is around 23.5-23.8. A Camaro ZL1 1LE couldn't even go past 23.0. The stock chassis of the SS 1LE is capable of handling far more power than the stock engine is, basically a big man's Civic Type R or GR Yaris.
