Yessir. I was also surprised. I went hoping for 13.3s in the heat, since the last bone stock one I tested at Hennessey's track only went 13.5s in the heat. That first car only had ~300 miles on it, and the track wasn't as sticky though. Mine had over 1,000 miles on it, and I've gotten familiar with the car and clutch/tranny. Plus, I tend to avoid beating on other people's cars too much, that is why I buy my own.
Even more interesting is that the car seems to get quicker if you do 2-3 consecutive runs without cool-down. The 4th runs went slower, too much heat soak and the coolant temps reach 220-221F on the 4th run in a row. Seems the sweet spot was coolant temps in the 200-212F range. Did one run at 186F coolant temp, and it only went 13.3.
