Quote from the linked Syclone article:
"Syclone is the quickest American production vehicle, short of a ZR1 Corvette, and those ZAls had better be in top shape before they square off with a Syclone."

The facts as I see them: A stock Syclone on average is a mid 13 second truck, a stock ZR-1 on average is a low 13 second car. Close enough to be a drivers race but generally the Syclone is going to come up short.

Lets see here... pulling up a four year old thread, creating an obnoxious username, insulting the websites members and using a smattering of magazine ZR-1 times against a single best ever Syclone run in a lame attempt to prove superiority... Yep you need to get a life!

P.S. I need to get a life as well for bothering with this silliness.

Now fast forward to the now..........there are handful of clones in the 8's and prolly about 20-25 guys running low nines in these. The aftermarket for syclones is of the chart these days since the awd/turbo rides are gaining numbers on the streets..............gotta love aftermarket go fast goodies!
