How fast will a 3700-3800lbs. car with about 300 horses to the ground run in the 1/4?

well according to that, how would a Camaro run low 13's or high 12's as people speculate. I'd say thats BS because I havent seen a stock ls1 run near low 13's without heads or slicks/bolt ons, oh and your wondering why, My friend 98' LS1 weighed 3800 with driver. He has about 300 HP to the wheels or less, were just estimating.So how the Heck do they run low 13's.He even doubts it runs low 13's because I beat him and im running high 13's low 14's.

MD..what calculator did you use...wow! Those are gererous numbers.
I calculated 14.15@95.2mph using 3700lbs. as the weight.
You pulled those numbers out of thin air didn't you....LOL
