Taking 3-4 vettes and posting them as proof is not common knowledge. Yes a handful of people have crossed into the 10's stock but what is the norm? The GTR will run 11.0's consistently and trap...

That does not determine how efficient the motor is. The reason why the vette receives decent miles per gallon is due to its 1:1 in 4th gear makes 5th and 6th overdrives.
