I guess I was probably a little pessimistic on my guess, but I'd say a low 14 would be far off too. Maybe around a 15.0? Are you going to run your car and find out?

Yeah, should be. The GTs are heavy and that heavyass slushbox AOD won't help too much either. Just go beat the hell out of it and let us know the result.

If driven like hell, powershifted, traction, etc then yes, it is possible. Seen them go high 13s with not much at all.
