Damn i want an '07 sooooooooooooooo bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guarantee you can run at least a 13.1. Did you mess with the tire pressure, take out the spare, or anything like that? Also were these normal shifts or power shifts? And did you smoke the clutch from the 3k rpm dumps or ???

Stock tire pressure, full stock weight with a 1/4 tank of gas, 3K rpm launch, quick lift shifts.

The stock clutch has a problem under WOT, where the pedal drops to the floor at times, especially while the car is warm from driving or making a pass. Seems to be an 07 design problem.

Its weird to me - mine sticks when the clutch is cold. My 3rd run is usually the best for the clutch, and second for the engine. My best time came on a 4th run because I tried both lanes and was alternating after that trying to find VHT.

Run open after the cats and that should drop it a few more tenths

Loud as hell though

Open after the cats, properly sized slicks...maybe even high 12's

Nice driving
