With that size, 1.4's on a decent track. 1.3's if you really push it since you have the Z06 rear end.

Your auto vs his manual is an apples to oranges comparison. But I agree, they are good for those 60fts.
A lot will be seat time and the clutch used at the OP's power level.

Nice number... they are obviously working.
Could you do me a favor and measure the height of the tire from the ground to the top with them on the car ? I have been trying to get this height for a while now.

I sold the tires when I sold the nitrous but if I remember correctly they were right around 27.7

I sold my 18 inch mt's n went 15s. At 830whp and 20 psi tire pressure it would blow them off pretty easily
