    These cars are soo under-rated. The stock time on this car is 12.7. It should have run way faster than a 12.2

    With the pro-charger kit its making 605hp. The stock suspension launches sooo well and it runs laguna Seca at the same time as an M3.

    $40,000 purchase price
    $7,000 for blower/install
    $3,000 for suspension/install
    $3,000 Rims/tires (hook up & sell stockers)

    /game over

    this was just a sign of crappy driving by inside line. a 122 trap speed is a decent mid 11 sec car with a good launch.

    still inside line does a poor job at driving rwd cars some times. they get great awd times though since thats just rev and go.

    this car with a good driver is a mid 11 car on street tires on a prepped track. prob a low-ish 11 sec car with a dr or a tire that lets it get a good 60'

    A supercharged GT running 12.2? Straight weaksauce. Should go faster, they need a real driver. I don't know about low 11's with Vortech, procharged w. weight reduction and DRs (mid 11's for sure low 11's possible).

    (Stock) ZO6's have been running mid to low 11's since 2002 Your buddy should be hittin' it consistently
    I don't know which is better getting paid or getting laid, all I know is while I'm doing one the others getting away.

    By stock you mean that 175 shot of giggle gas doesn't count?

    And they say the live rear axle is inherently bad - and for the 3 grand it takes to upgrade it to whats shown here - I'd take it over the 5-7 grand it takes for a IRS car...
