I also forgot to mention, that the other one I saw that ran either 13.0 or 13.1, still had temporary plates on it. So, the guy probably didn't have much seat time with it. So, I'd consider it to not be too bad of runs. He may have even gotten into the 12's that night, I just didn't see. But, seat time is definately key to making any car perform. Hell look at me. My first time at the track, all I could muster up was a 14.3. Only three small mods (LS1 air lid with ram air, UDP, and tune), and two trips to the track later, I was cracking off consistant 13.2's, with more room for improvement.

The car definatly has mid 12s potential with the right driver. I'd say the average driver is going to be running very low 13s though. I've personally seen a termie with a full exhaust, smaller pulley, and a custom tune go low 14s at about 120 mph all day. It was some old guy that couldn't drive the car for ****, his son got in it, gave the DRs a proper heat and was in the high 11s on his second pass.

Well they are all manuals yes? Going to take a bit more skill to get the most out of the car then.
