I was a long time subscriber to Car and Driver before it was taken over by the woke millennials in the early 2000’s. Almost all of their long term test cars were faster after 10-20k miles compared to new. I still believe in a gentle break-in with increasing “exercise” as the miles accumulate.
Sure seems that way.

I know Ripa's does not, and he ordered his bare to the bones, as light as possible, less the carbon wheels, and he showed the scale result on his FB the other day - 4157 lb.

Don't forget; Ron had a 5.93 1/8th @ 118.8 mph. Ron is the quickest so far.

Is it true that it has 60 miles on it?
Looks like he had about 67 miles on it before the track today. Pretty damn impressive to rip off 9.30's on a brand new powertrain. He said the trans was sloppy but learning and adapting quickly.

Took the words right out of my mouth. NO ONE is going 8's till they start putting smaller pulleys and retuning them thats fact. I really cant ever remember anyone going 9.65 in the Demon without further mods.

Get ready for a bunch of mid to high 9’s LOL 😂 it will take more than perfect conditions to run the 8.9’s.
