He'll get it down once the clutch issue is fixed.

I'd be suprised if he didn't hit 13.1.

I need to get my car to the dealer, but I hate not having it when I'm off.

I'll take it tomorrow, NPM is sneaking up fast.

Let me be the naysayer.... I sincerely doubt it happens bone stock. If it happens I will be glad to issue a publis 'I was wrong' statement.

The 13.3's were far too easy, given the clutch handicap. I should be able to get another couple of tenths..

I agree. I feel that this car is capable of 13.0-13.1 bone stock given a good driver and good track conditions. I just need to find the time to try and hit that myself, hehe.

My favorite part was when whoever it was that got like a 13.64 or 13.46 in the 07 everybody was like no no no wont go anyfaster stock wont happen.

So he gets 13.3's... WITH CLUTCH issues.

Now NO NO NO wont get any faster wont happen...

It will =)

Normally you can see from the times where improvements can be made...considering the weather he had and how his runs look... he could squeeze another 2 tenths in similar/better weather conditions... I don't forsee a 12.9 or better but I could be wrong. (In case people are thick around here..I have stated that as a possibility)...

It's very hard to see of that slip where his 'clutch issues' made any impact on his results... I guess I will just wait and see.

It won't happen until November here. We have WAY too high of temps to take a 40 degree handicap and the humidity grip losses off the line within stride.

I would be VERY happy to break 13.55 with a 2.00 60'.

Thats kindof my point to start modding the car.

Even in November I would be thrilled with a 13.3

My 13.64 is in 87 degrees - but I think you have at least 1000' on me in altitude.
