It's hard to say cause tracks seem to differ alot to even with the same driver. I'm guessing a 13.2 or 13.3 at 108.

Man...that car is a moving SLP ad. All you need is the Ultra-Z hood. Good luck at the track!

I'm gonna say mid 13's @ 106ish...I think the weight of those chrome ZR1 rims are going to slow you down a bit.

Good Luck...I hope you go 12's.

it depends, we (me and my girlfriend) live in the Antelope Valley in California (hot, dry, slows your car down) and the best I've run is a 13.7 @ 101 and she ran a 14.1 @ 98...everyone said that was really good for out here, and compared to everyone else, it really was!

well anyway, good luck and I hope you don't live somewhere shitty like us!

expect slow and be happy when you run faster

there's a huge difference from car to car driver to driver place to place.

tony (nineball) did 12.85 in his m6 99 hugger orange SS w/ only a lid, and he was on regular 18" street radials. but he can row 'em pretty good i guess this was at houston raceway park on a very good night.

some guys dont break the 14's and others hit 12's out of the box. where do you live and whats the altitude?
