Default Are '04 GTO's 12 sec cars bone stock??

I hit a 13.1@106 the other night at Cecil County, MD dragway in my bone stock GTO. That was with a 2.0 60', I ran a 13.2 with a 1.8 60' the week before at capitol dragway spinning a little in 3rd. With the right weather, and the right launch, I think she is a 12 sec car.

Keep going at it dude. With the perfect weather conditions(-1500DA) You'll be running 12.9's all day. Keep banging those gears. Also try to go to a track where they spray the starting line with VHT. Clean your tires off a good amount. Tach her up to about 3500 and slip the clutch just right. You'll be flying . And make sure your dont take your foot off the gas when you shift Thats your recipe for a 12 second time slip. Good luck

Very possible. Great run. What were the temps and conditions like on that pass.

It was a high pressure evening, around 45 deg, not sure what the Da was that day. It got colder as the night went on and there was no traction after that.

Nice run!

Based on the time on your timeslip, the temperature you gave, and the weather info from Wilmington (closest reporting station), the DA was about -700 ft.
