Kinda disappointed at the 12.2 @ 121 1/4 mile times...but im assuming it has low 11s in it with better tires/ driver/ conditions.

Thats still a lot of trap speed for a car coming out of the factory.

Could be they simply ran the car without launch control

These guys ran it at 11.7 with it turned on and couldn't beat that with launch control turned off.
