Congrats on the run, and kudos but it is still not a 10 second car in my mind.

But people have run consistently in the high-10's with just drag radials or slicks. That's a factory 10-sec car to me.

No it is not, you modified a part of the car.
Drive the car off the lot and down to your local drag strip and run it, no changes, no tune, nothing. The Vette is a very fast production car and I am not denying it, but the current Z06 is not a 10 second car off the lot.

Anyway, what's the fastest GT-R time--off the lot? THAT was the comparison.

I just saw that, but left the link. Can you link me to the stock GT-R that ran a better time, please? All it needs is one superior pass for me to concede the point. Even if it's in perfect weather.
