Default 09 1500's with 6spd times....

Can't really find any times posted. Anybody on here have or seen how they are running at the track?? Whether 5.3, 6.0, or 6.2. Just wondering how much of an improvement the trans is making. TIA!

I bet most of that slow time is in the programming but, being fair to the others I have no idea how their programming is.

The 6 speed auto is nice.

With all of the obviously great engineering of the chevy, I just would've expected more. Probably is in the tune.

I think the 6 speed was made more for fuel economy than performance. Remember $4/gal
