Default Whats a Chevy SSR run in the 1/4mile

I am just curious to know what the stock times are for an SSR?

Yes, I am a hemi owner, but I figured you guys would have better knowlage of their times then the Dodge guys. Got to race one from a roll up to 70mph and pulled on him decently hard.

Thanks

Mid to low 15s. They weigh 4900lbs. They're heavy bastards.

truck trends say they weigh around 4700 i think. stock form, not that special (15.x) but there is a tuner out there that is installing the ls6 engine into it and or supercharging it if you want that done too as well as new piston's and stage 2 heads i think along with other work.

Its because of the suspention and the conv top and the tiny bed. They had to add alot of bracing to strengthen the frame structure because of the convertable top. On top of that the top its self weighs alot, being a hard top.
