Nope, just see right through your unsubstantiated BS. You have yet to post ANY proof of 392's routinely running sub 12.6 times. Not a single professional review was able to do it. I've seen 3 sub 12.6 times and hundreds of high 12, low 13's.

The ET was consistent with the other passes though.

Riiiiight, and I'm supposed to believe there aren't other "glitches" on his timeslip? Regardless, it's one person in a supposedly stock car running 12.5's. Great car, great driver, great conditions = great times. Unfortunately this isn't always the case, which is why most run ~ 12.9.

Again, you are showing your butthurt, i said it happens, it does, I said 12.4s aren't uncommon, they are not (do research, visit some Mopar sites, unless you are scared to have your feelings a little more hurt than they already are.....). And really, calling someone a liar because ONE thing on the timeslip was off and he admittied it and even informed you it was NOT the only one with similar times. Your posts just smack of desperation. Congrats, ou win the award for true fanboy................

I wish I still had my Dodge I would have loved to have raced his CTS-V if he was also stock. Chances are I would have lost but it would have been in good fun to try

Yes, that would be fun and win or lose it isn't this whole hobby really about having fun?

What is stock? To me that means the way the factory made it. Even down to the tire pressure. Some claim their car as stock even after weight reduction, tire pressure changes out of stock range, supercharger pulley swap when the pulley is from same mfg, & so on.

Here's my times from my 100% stock cars all ran at the same crappy track.

2010 Challenger SRT8(6.1L) Auto - 12.87 best, 13.0-13.1 the norm
2010 Mustang GT Auto - 13.47 best, 13.5s the norm
2012 Camaro SS/RS Auto - 13.52 best, 13.5-13.6 the norm

I've driven & raced the 392 at Daytona Speedway & it felt a lot faster than mine.

To me stock is ZERO mods right from the factory no weight savings. Pretty much like it was when it left the showroom. I have messed with tire pressures and found it doesn't really do any good with the Eagle F1's. I keep them at 32 pounds on my Super Bee and have been getting 1.9 60 fts like that. 1.8 60 fts are possible on the stock F1's but my Super Bee is no where near broke in yet. Still only 800 miles on it. I did find on the Eagle RSA tires that they will hook a tad bit better at 28 pounds. That's what I ran my tires at on the 392 Challenger I had. Those tires suck even worse than the F1's.

Watch out, now we will probably get to hear you are a liar because you ran 12.87 in your stock 6.1 SRT8. Sorry, had to throw that out there......

LOL, truuuu!!! Best I got out of the 2007 SRT8 Charger I had (when it was bone stock) was a 12.9 @ 110. That 12.87 he ran is BS.

LIAR!!!!!

You are both lying, you are just looking to bolster the car you have. it's not possible. Not enough have done it. They are too heavy. That isn't what the magazines ran. You had hidden modifications.

Did I cover everything?

Edit: Forgot to add the timers at the track were malfunctioning........... EVERYTIME!

Just too funny. Seriously I don't think any of us are in here to bash the SS, I owned one and it was my 2nd favorite car behind my 392 but ahead of my 5.0 and terminator. My mistake with the SS was that I should have built an automatic car . I'd LOVE to have a automatic ZL1 sitting in my garage, as presently I think it's the best muscle car out there.

I agree, no one is bashing the SS at all. My choice would be the 1LE. I would just love to go tearing down some of the better and twistier roads around here in one

I don't think anyone here is bashing the camaro, but the 392 is a low 12 second car and it happens more often than not as long as the driver knows what they are doing. Here is my buddy's 392. He ran a 12.2 completely stock out of the dealership. I let him borrow my drag radials, front skinnies and we added a tune. Car went 11.92 with ease....and yes that is a C6 with bolt ons and drag radials getting walked:

[slapattack]

Here he is completely stock:
