12.1? I call BS. It's power to weight ratio is barely above the Terminators(8.75 vs ~8.85). So it should be a tenth better at most. BTW, that isn't "bench racing;" it's just physics!

It is OK to swallow the pride.

I guess he's pointing out the fact you said it was stock and then it turned out he had slicks on it. Duh?

You reasoning is off because there are WAY TOO MANY variables for those runs. One may have better air, crappy prep. Other may have great prep and terrible air. Another great prep and air. Some tracks are downhill, some level, some uphill. Etc...

This is where I think your thought process is bent.

If you want to throw hero runs in, how about a 12.12 for a stock 5.0?

We can all speculate and see who can piss the farthest but until you get them all in similar environment, it is just Internet bullshit/speculation.

Yes, it would be physically impossible for a stock 2011 GT to hit a 12.1.

You said it was physically impossible for it to run those times based on power-to-weight ratio meaning no mods that would increase power. Are you now going to change the "rules" and imply something else? The car was STOCK. No gear change, no power adders...

You and the "others" decided to start a pissing contest.

I posted a very objective comparison of the 3 cars base on experience and the "clan" decided to head down this path. Keep that in mind when the next thread comes along.

Are you serious right now? I specifically said 12.1 because you called it a "stock" run. We were all talking about the GT in the context of it being stock (as you explicitly stated and what I was responding to). You said it, ULTRAZ said it; just stop.

BTW, it's stock if you can remove a part for another that is good for .4+ second gains? Hmph. Everyone with Headers, Exhausts, CAIs, Tunes, and any combination of the 4 are now stock.
