04’ GTO 6 speed w/Basic mods and tune should be a Low 13 sec daily…

Could go for 12’s, but i’m going with the “garage to park it in” mod and a wife to ride with. :tup:

93 ford tempo pushing 100 hp

in all seriousness, my dad may be giving me his s15 sometime this year and i may drop a sbc in it, thus making it slow still.

Yea I think 12’s is pushing it in the M5 although I really have not looked into what they typically run. I have seen most people go low 13’s around 106-108. I figure intake, cat-back and tune on dr’s or the azenis I have should be able to squeeze a 12.99 I hope. I will prob make some passes in the next few weeks…then I will buy a fast car and stop beating on my dd.

I’d like to just bring something to the strip this year, I have something I could but its not much.

86 Monte Carlo SS, Its got the stock motor in it with headers and true duals, but I have a couple small blocks to choose from, so one of them might find their way into the car, probably 13.99.

05 GTO 6 speed, bone stock and in the low 13’s. If anything I’ll make it turn and stop better, not really interested in going faster in a straight line.

Exige should do mid 12s stock, maybe high 12s… But “standing starts” apparently can void my warranty.

GTR what?

And if i had to guess, at least 50% of what people voted will probably be one choice up in real life.

13.1 was my best last year. ill probably do some more tuning, retard my cam a few deg’s so i can rev past 5500 and still make power and add a little more boost. shouldnt have too much trouble getting into the 12’s. that is if i fix the bad bearing in my trans.

I’ll keep it in the low 12’s with the TBSS. I managed an 11.959 last year on an absolutely perfect run with cool ambient air, whacking it with the spray at just the right time, etc., but that’s hardly reproducible on a consistent basis.

Low 13’s or high 12’s…I am optimistic so I voted for the latter.

But to be honest, I am more concerned with setting my car up for a few track days. Might take it to NYIRP just for shits and giggles.

it’s amazing how not spinning the tires at all, an auto trans, a 150 shot, and some misc. goodies can overcome weighing 5000 LBS 🙂  
I’m only going to run a 100 shot this year though, that’s what I’m tuned for and I’d like to not accidentally a transmission or motor for as long as possible.
