0-60 : 5.49
1/4 mile: 13.76@101.9

Best run:
0-60 : 5.23
1/4 mile : 13.59@103.2

On street tires? I would be very suprised if you went 13.50s with those mods.

Well, I have a 2002 lightning that runs 11.80's and it was accurate. I have a 2004 cobra that runs 11.20's and it was accurate at the track as well.

Those are all the mods i have and I am running BF Goodrich g-force k/a kdw2's they stick so much better than the potenza's. They hook up better and handling was greatly improved. I had to replace tires when i got it.

Really good numbers, I have the exact setup with the same tires and everything. I would think the slower time is pretty damn close, the 103 trap is a little high IMO

Yeah, the KDW's hook pretty damn well for a street tire. I think I will only end up getting about 15k miles out of the rear though... The wet performance blows away most performance tires.

Actually I live about 40 minutes from the track so I go a few times a month just haven't went with this car since I just got it in winter. I have run my g-tech while at the track and it is always within 1/10th of a second + or -. Usually it read about .05 or so slower than I actually went, although the trap speed is usually off abit.

My truck the fastest ever on g-tech was 11.92 and I actually ran at the track(union grove) 11.84(twice). So I don't live by it but it is a awsome way to measure the effectiveness of a new mod. Gives a good baseline!!
