I have an 06 m6 GTO with Vrx6 cam, monster stage 3 clutch, full bolt-ons, full suspension upgrade, and too much more to mention (along with nitto nt555 on all corners). On a dynojet it put down 444rwhp/413rwtq.

Now let's just say for this instance that I'm very experienced at the track (even though when I go it'll be my first time), and I'm known for getting the most out of my car no matter the conditions. What is the best possible time I could expect in the quarter mile with those numbers I mentioned above? Just want to get a ballpark even though i don't expect to do excellent being that it's an m6 and I've never raced at the strip before.

I'd say ballpark 11.9

You aren't going to get close to that though even if you were experienced, the stock GTO suspension is not at home on the 1320.

If the tires ain't a raidal, good luck. If on a good tire I could see 11.9-12.1. But you've not been on the track yet. So I'd say mid 12s

There are alot of variables street racing and racing at the track are two entirely different animals. What track are you racing at?:drive:

I have Lovell's Eliminator Performance suspension kit, and Lovell's Polyurethane Bushing replacements if that helps any
