To get good 0-60 times spend good money on tires, camber of your rear tires, springs that are soft enough to allow a weight transfer to the rear tires and a TT kit running around 9psi. You will be at 3.8 easily with the right suspension.
Well said

IMO, the car that is bone stock AND is the greatest beast of them all WITH CARB and a WARRANTY is a new Z06.

As for a launch from a stand still and Zero to 60, no matter what we used to put head to head against my older Z06, it still ran 3.9-4.0 with street tires and without drag radials with only 12 PSI, good luck beating those times. As for beating the New Z06 0-60 or 1/4 miles, goodluck. 50 years of Corvette racing and dragstrip gives them an amazing advantage from the launch...Suspension design and gearing play the biggest roles here.
