Default Close to twelves?

What is the general trap speed for the twelves? What about stock?

Looking at some 12 times people put up and the only thing that seems to be setting everything off from me being in the 12's is my 60'. I did a 2.46 60 due to bald tires. Final slip came out 13.39 @ 108.9 mph. Don't remember what the 1/8 was because I am going off of memory, slip is in the car in a nice toasty storage garage currently.

Car is all stock, think I could hit 12's stock? At least stock to my knowledge, someone could have dropped a cam in it before I bought it maybe!

Edit - 01 TA M6

Yup, probably will see new tires before it sees home after it comes out of storage in a month or two.

A4s should pull 2.0x 60s or better all day anyway, but that 60 does suck for an m6 car, get some tires...

Drag Radials will do you a world of good. My 60's are in the 1.70 range, with a best of 1.69, and I have an A4, 3.73's, and a stall. DR's made all the difference, and stock street tires don't cut it if you're putting down some good power to the wheels.
