Unlikely unless he is on slicks. The Zs don't like to launch hard. Haven't see a 370 run 10s yet.

have you seen what happens to the stock axles when you launch on slicks?

after a couple launches, you'll be towing the car home.

I'll just redirect all my torques to the front wheels and go FWD. It'll work in a pinch.

Also I'm sure the stock rear end even with the Quaife diff will hold up to hard launches on drag radials too well..

Yes. I'm assuming anyone launching on slicks (or even DRs with this car) would be smart enough to have some spares on hand. :icon17:

I'm guessing mid 11s at best on street tires.

I would think even on good street tires and decent track prep, mid 11's would still be difficult as I'm sure wheelspin is likely going to be an issue.

For a newb, sure. For anyone with some experience I think you should be able to run mid 11s on 500whp. Better if you can hook up.
