Just remember to lift your right foot when the *** end starts hopping around on those street tires.

I don't think you are going to muster more than a 12.8 on street tires,,,,put some drag radials on it and it will drop at least 3 tenths just in the 60 ft....

I'm thinking more like 12.6. Ran my buddies 01 Z06 with catback from a 30mph roll, and we were dead even. He ran 12.5@114

Get some DR's and come to Gateway on a Tuesday Test and Tune and find out. The 97's come with a good factory tune; I will say 12.5 and better, if we can get some good air.
