anywhere from 13.5-13.9 @ 100-105 depending on the car. 60' will generally be around a 2.0 flat unless you have some stcicky tires on!

Re: 1/4 time (lcvette)
Thanks Chris.
I had the car at the track on Friday and thought that a 13.8 wasnt too bad because my launch was poor all five runs! I just read another post before that had a 13.1 in the signature with "stock" next to it and thought i was missing something.
Definitely time for some mods...

"Release the evil" modding is addictive and becomes something that can consume you!
Any suggestions for mild mods (without going inside the engine) to start with?

Mackey went 12.46 same set up... only he had 90,000 miles on his car..
