I'm dissapointed with my current 13.2 best, but my tires are just about bald. Great runs though. Not knocking the times at all.
same here, thats what i would think.

Thats the most ignorant comment I've seen. Dont be mad because I run 14s? Go home troll. Post the timeslip, or stfu.

Plenty of guys are running 11s/12s on stock heads. But they're definetly not running those times with a stock cam, stock rockers, or stock gear ratio and street radials. 12.9 @ 107 mph is moving. I just dont see it with your mods.

makes since to me, whats so hard to belive

You show me a lot of other cars with only headers, catback and CAI for engine mods that are running 12.9@107, and I'll believe what you say. Trapping 107 takes a good amount of HP, so it's dang impressive for what he has done to the car.

What I'm saying is that the times that he ran are on par with what I see guys with the Hotcam running. Granted the Hotcam can run faster than 12.9@107 on stock heads, and often does, but on average, it's about what I see out of that cam a lot. Most of the time, with stock heads, I see 12.5-13.2@106-112. It varies a lot with the cam, depending on driver.

Thats about what it would be running with a six speed, if a cars set up right, it'll run good. Problem is 75% of cars out there are set up so crappy they run horible for the mods they have, so when some one who knows what their doing sets a car up and it runs good people are all of a sudden amazed with the times.

great times for a m6 bro. When my car was still a bolt on car, stock rocker and stock gears also, my best time was 12.5@107. but i was an auto and had a good amount of weight taken out of the car.
