I'm looking forward to a GTG as well only problem now is I don't have a good freeway gear being this car is a th350 instead of the 6 speed in the camaro. I'll probably roll thru a tank of gas on the way down and back... gas prices are a killer

Well my car is very similar, except auto (no stall at the time of my ET) and i ran a 12.85. I would assume yours would be around there with a good driver. Possibly a bit faster depending on the track/weather. I know I ran a 13.0 with my car on another day with the same setup but 30 degrees warmer out, so who knows? lol

I don't think he is questioning Nate's claim, I think he is questioning your driving ability compared to his.

at full weight, and a stock gear, your car is a high 12s - 13 flat car on a street tire.

The trap speed seems low, with similiar mods I trapped 112.
