All of the M6 cars are capable of running 12's stock in my opinion .... the real question is what percentage of drivers can run 12's in a bone stock f-body.

Cutout is not really completely stock though. You picked up a good 10+ HP.



On another note....I went 13.2 @ 106.XX with only 1400 miles on the clock.

I wonder if a full optioned SS or Firehawk should be considered "bone" stock. After all they did not come off the assembly line with that exhaust, springs, suspension, gears lid etc etc etc...
But whatever. Who cares in my book? The cars are an honest low to high 13 second car from the factory.

My guess is .005% lol. I've only seen a few. Somebody said maybe 50 total. That's a lot more than I've seen and I look around a lot.

Race gas ain't gonna make a damn bit of difference, and SLP cars run the same number. In my opinion, the weather and track prep are the two biggest factors obviously along with a competent driver.

I did it on my FIRST trip to the track with my WS6. 12.992@108.96 2.050 60ft, and another one of my buddies did it this fall with an 01 m6 camaro.

I'll have to agree that most of the m6s are capable if the driver is

Wow, that's a lot higher percentage than I'd think. And I've never even heard of an auto hitting 12's bone stock.

The stats above might be close, but, only with a perfect driver ... in absolute perfect conditions ... at a well-prep'd track ... in the grooves of a few big slick cars running ahead of you. Under 1% IMO.
