New personal best in my 05 GT
Went down to the SSOTN Nats at Cecil today. It was rained out last week and they were able to slip it in between snow storms today. It was in the high 30's and the track had some bite
My old best was a 12.42@110 with a 1.75 60 foot in my 05 GT
New Best
1.709 60 foot
7.87@88.12 in the 1/8th
12.300@111.39 !!
Mods are 4:10 gears, aluminum DS, BMR control arms, JLT cold air, my own SCT tune, BBK X pipe with Cats, FRPP axle back and MT 275 40 17 drag radials. Only change from last time out was the BMR control arms. I think there is more left in the 60 foot too.
I really wanted a 12.29 but I will take the 12.30. My goal is to be the fastest S197 on a bone stock motor. I have a stock TB, stock CMCV plates, etc. Even still have stock headers and cats.

Nice time. I was there today as well, but only as a spectator. I put the car away this past week when we got the snowstorm and they started salting the crap out of the roads. 
We did a road rally today in the 30s, my ran great!

Its
until I see a slip, then it becomes jealousy, lol. But then I might call error in the timing system, hehe.

Great times!
I had a ticket as well, but no time to go. We're having Turkey day over my place for about 20 people and the other half had me doing all kinds of stuffs.

Doesnt seem to fit the shoe. I cant see that fast with no cams, no n20, no blower, no extreme weight shaving. I dont have 4:10's but 3:55's nor an alum shaft, but do have pullies. I call bs on .5 faster.

It just proves I am going as fast as possible with the least about of mods I will post some timeslips later but many people saw the car run yesterday. I made 6 passes and 5 of them were in the 12.30's.

My point is an untouched engine from throttle body to pan. At this point it even has stock exhaust manifolds on it. A tune allows the engine to operate more efficiently but the engine remains stock. The CAI kits just gets more air into the engine. I see your point and this is one of those things that can be argued to death. My goal is just to run the number with no throttlebody changes, no delete plates, no cams, etc.

Bone stock is a loosely used term in all internet forums and bench-racing, in general, and must be taken with a grain of salt. However, your N/A modded GT is certainly one of the quickest examples with such limited bolt-ons, so my hat's off to you.
