Don't be so sure to call bs. It could be possible.

I still want to know what boost he's running and his trap speed. Low 12s isnt exactly easy with stock suspension and spinning your tires. Pro aren't you running low 12s?

hmmmm , ask him for the slips!! cause pro50sc runs those times with 12 psi but then again all his internals are stock...you said he has a cam??? what about roller rockers?? heads completely stock???....... he may run close to those times with 8 psi.. but my bet is his head is spinning more so than his tires and what was his mph???

well ya figure he has 350-360 horses at the motor with a 3300lb. weight est. and with the help of the 3.73 gears, my guess would be 12.2-12.3 1/4 mile times, all depends how much he's spinning really, but def. believeable.
