Default quickest time

What is everyone's quickest quarter mile time and at what altitude? One of my friends has a 15 second Mustang he thinks is pretty hot, so I wanted to show him it sucks.

I ran a 13.8 bone stock with an A4. Spinning most of the way through 1st. I was at sea level. This guy thinks his 15 second 'stang is hot? Just go ahead and tell him to <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" /> to GM. Please tell me he hasn't done anything to it. If so, he's suckin'.

All he admits to putting on it is a chip, an X-Pipe, and he might be getting a Cold Air Intake but it's still going to be slow.
