Hmmm, if you can drive OK, maybe a 13.1. That's my guess. These cars fluctuate alot. I've heard bone stock run 13.0's all day long, and a modded one run 13.5's. Just take it to the track. You aren't making enough power/are on street tires/just don't launch too hard......then your 10 bolt will be fine.

depends on your driving...... should be at LEAST a mid 13.... maybe a low 13 if you get a low 60 ft.
