Sky RL & Solstice GXP Mag Tests?

When do we expect the first instrumented magazine tests of one of these cars to occur? August issues released in early July, or more likely the September issues out in early August? Just curious to see how the cars do.

Why bother with the mags. . .

they'll go 13.5-13.8 @ 100-102mph, 0-60 in very low 5s, skid pad of .86-.89, mediocre braking and slalom.

we already have numbers...

according to GM... GM news
The Sky Red Line will accelerate from 0-60 mph in about 5.5 seconds, and will run the quarter mile in about 13.9 seconds.
