Seems like one magazine tested an LS2 goat at 12.9 in the quarter mile stock. A friend of mine with a tune only LS2 A4 Goat ran with us several times last year at Twin City Dragway in Monroe. I saw him run mid 13s on average and dipped down to 13.2 in one race. Yes his car is capable of 12s (and no, it was not faster than my tune/intake SRT8 Charger heh heh). The truth is that temperature, humidity, and elevation play a huge role in ETs.
FYI: I have also heard of SRT8 300s running around a 12.6 - 12.7 stock but that is not the norm at all.
DA can easily rob/add 40 + rear wheel horsepower depending on conditions

and as i have said before i dont care what that "list" says, too many people modify the weight of cars and components to get on those list. Believe nothing you hear and half of what you see. The best source for stock comparisons is magazines IMO.

You are wrong, pure and simple. Hell, my car ran 13.4 bonestock in 2000' DA weather. 12.9 with headers/cai/tune in a tad higher DA. And for what it's worth: there was 6 SRT8 Challenger/Chargers at the drags when I ran my times. Besides the 800hp (I know it was 800hp because it said it in big letters on the side of his car in vinyl graphics) that ran high 11's, the rest of them were mid-high 13's. Best of those was tune/cai/exhaust/Nitto 555R's who matched my stock time of 13.4 @109.
Wish you were local....
And for the record: Interiors are a intensely personal like/dislike I've found. I've driven the Charger, 5.0, 2011 Camaro, GTO, LS1 Fbody Camaro, 03 GT.... and hands down I like the GTO interior the best. Amazing fit n finish, great material choices, sedate modern styling reminiscient of the best that German every came up with. Just wish it had a nav screen, too.
BUT, like I said before, it's kinda like asking a guy what girl is hotter than another:: you'll never agree, or be able to explain exactly WHY you feel that way.

God Bubba is a complete idiot. "Hey heres proof of X" Sorry I dont believe it anyone can say anything"
Funny that you think a 425 HP 4100 pound car is SOO much faster than a 3700 pound 400 hp car. It is quite comical and your ignorance is giving me quite a laugh. I really wish you were closer so I could put 10 buslengths on you but you'd probably back out.

Just look at what they said the c6 z06 et in the 1/4....11.6-11.7 @ 123.6 mph according to your pals at motortrend.
Tell me how the ***** is it when you put a GOOD driver in the same STOCK Z06 you shave half a second off that? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQdR3WV9tLk

This guy would have loved to run an 11.7 (that's me in the TA against him). He had street tires and was bone stock.

I saw a stock 5.0 run 13.6 with a 2.6 60" at the track the other night. I believe his best for the night was a 13.4. This is bone stock and not a great track surface. I only pulled off a 1.9 60' on mickeys spinning 2nd that night, though I haven't been out again so I cant compare to anything. On stock tires its all driver and surface... I'm not arguing that the 5.0 is faster than a gto or vice versa, just what I saw.
