There are a TON of variables to be considered in this issue. The biggest thing of all being 60' time. Every tenth picked up in the first 60' is approximately 2 tenths at the end of the track.
Don't FDs trap 105 stock? If so, with a good launch, they are good for 12.90s or so.

Do you really think a stock FD will pull a high 12 stock? I don't know about that. It just seems kind of fast.
Has anyone here heard of anyone running 12's stock?

No, I've never heard of 12's stock, a good stock number is mid 13's and thats with 255hp at the flywheel.
To get a good idea start with 13.5 with 255hp and add 10hp for every 10th you want.
You want 13flat then add another 50hp. to get about 300 flywheel or 255rwhp.
This would lead to a 12flat with about 400hp flywheel which is about 340 at the wheels.
You want 11 flat add another 100hp at the flywheel which would bee 500flywheel and about 425rwhp.
These numbers are not exact but they will give you a good rule of thumb.

Not that I've ever seen or heard about. Your going to need good tires, driver and conditions to get 13.5, the NORMAL time for most guys is high 13's with regular street tires.
Your right about the stock trap though, its normally 100-103.

A great deal of it is in the 60' times.
I ran 116 @12.8 2.2 60'*
Another time 12.3 @114 1.8 60'*
When I was stock about 102 @13.9 @ 2.5 60'>stock tires and wheel hop
*drag radials w/launch kit

Motor Trend said 13.9@99.7mph stock
Road and Track said 14.0@98.5mph stock
And that is with their professional drivers that perfect launching.
I'd add .5s for anyone bone stock to acheive realistically.

Well I typed in the weight and gear rations into one of those 1/4mi calculators (I can seem to find it anymore though... but it said that 300 horse should be good enough for a 1st gen...
2400lbs
3.9:1 rear diff
4shifts...
However this is just a mathmetical formula, and could have meant power at the tire... I hope thats right cause running a 12 with only 300horse would be killer
but you never know for sure until you actually run

If you look around there are claims that Best Car got a 12.9x 1/4 out of the JDM 99+, thats 280hp (fly wheel) and a 4.3:1 diff etc (was an RS).
