Maybe I missed something though. Now when you start talking about drag radials and bolt ons the times come down. So when you come in here telling me that I don't know my facts do a little research on the average times in your own site and forum.
This kind of reminds me back in 1986/87 of the 87 Mustang 5.0 then a few magazines like Cars Illustrated and Super Stock and Drag Illustrated ran a pair of new 87 5.0s one was Mean Mr. Mustang, I can't remember the other, with a few bolt-ons they were running high 12s, at the same time the average Joe including myself could only get mid 13s with the same parts. Funny thing is all the 5.0 guys were going around saying the 87 5.0 was a 12 second car even though the stock 5.0s were just breaking into the 13s.

Fastest stock manual is a 12.58 so far, fastest stock autos have run 12.4s, 100% stock down to the tire and paper filter. Sure, average guys are going to run high 12s to low 13s, but that doesn't mean that the mid 12s that
are being run in bone stock cars are the result of some conspiracy by Ford to belittle your camaro.
