i would say your very capable of realistic low 13's, knockin on the door of a high 12. if your an auto and have a decent size stall, you should have him whooped....if not i wouldnt put any $ on it, it would be too close.

Sounds like a mid to high 12 sec car to me, especially since you have DRs. Stick or Auto?

I'd hope mid 12s with all of that..

My 01 Z28 A4 with 2.73 gears on street tires ran 12.90s consistant...Mods were Pacesetter LTs, SLP air lid, and a tune.

Does he drive a stick or an auto? That would make a difference on the street too. And will you be racing from a roll or stopped? Those are important too.
