New personal best in my stock 5.0

IM STOKED I WAS ABLE TO CRACK A 12.5 BONE STOCK. ALL I HAVE IS LCA'S AND DROP SPRINGS. NO POWER ADDERS AND IM ON STOCK SUMMER TIRES.

SINCE 3.73'S I STAYED IN 4TH GEAR.

IM CAR 27




4TH RUNS OUT RIGHT BEFORE THE LINE SO I SHIFTED TO 5TH TO SEE IF IT WOULD HELP. IT DIDNT

Nice runs! Not my definition of "bone stock" but none the less, nice runs.

Very nice run.

I do have to side with Tom281 on the "bone stock" thing though. Most would iterpret that phrase to mean COMPLETELY stock including suspension. Now if you said "bone stock drivetrain" you'd be on the money.

That is some good driving! That is almost identical to the time I ran with my pulleyed 03 Cobra. The aggressive gearing in those cars sure makes up a solid 70-80hp deficiency.

that is definitely not anywhere close to "bone stock", especially if you had the 3.73s installed after the fact. Very misleading videos.

The 3.73's are most likely factory, even still it's just springs, geez folks.

Also I see your from nc, where was that run made ?

Also LCAs will be helping traction. Great runs no doubt, but not bone stock

Nice runs man. Way to get deep into the 12s with a basically stock 5.0.

Stock power. The car is not stock. The 2 mods probably afforded you about 2 tenths. Very nice pass none the less.

Great runs. I'm sad I didn't get to run there before last year before I sent her here. There aren't any good 1/4 mile tracks here. Plenty of road courses though.

True, and you have the Autobahns and can run the Nurburgring for about 25 euros, so it's not all bad
