Not on street tires and he has minimal suspension upgrades (plus he has a T-5)........high 13's or low 14's....if you cant get traction you cant go fast........

people cant get traction because they cant drive. My cobra turned a 13.8 @ 99.6 mph on street tires, and that was BEFORE i tuned it, and WITHOUT nitrous




oh did i mention that I'm running 3.08 gears??

Okay....I ran a 13.98 at 96mph and 1.90 60 ft on street tires(215/65/15R to be exact), and that was before I tuned it, and without Nitrous also...........plus mine was stock a 5.0 with full exhaust and a K&N filter....making a whopping 195 rwhp...........in a vert......little heavier then yours.......

He will run a high 13........

You should trap well but without traction your ET will suffer.
