I was invited to this party a little late - but...
Ahhhh... big deal. At least as many factory stock LS1 f-bodies have run under 13.0 as have factory stock FD's run under 13.3.

It's that whole "highly respected" thing that had me going. No one on this thread seems to know who he is and he's done everything but earn my respect on here (although I'm sure that doesn't bother him too much since I'm new and I can't possibly know too much about anything).

So again, do you believe it?
Again, I never meant to imply you said anything you didn't say. I know you did claim high 13's on average and mid 13's with a good driver ... I completely agree with that assessment.

No he didn't say that. He said he ran a 12.6 with a crush bent 3" pipe replacing the main cat and muffler. The precat was perfectly fine. Btw that was the Oct 9th 12.6 timeslip.
A happy day : )

And you run .5-.6 r/t on average eh?
So... how many .5-.6 r/t's have you ran to make that your "average"?

I have spent the last 9 months being a troll on LS1.com and I earned quite a rep. I'm not about to throw it all away.

And you bring up a good point, sometimes I forget why I have the battery cut off switch, rollbar, S2000 helmet, among other things.
And yes, I happen to know for a fact that RX-7's can run 12's bone stock.

300 bhp, would you like a calculator???

As for RX7's running 13.2's or 13.3's ... look at the first few people on this thread ... none of them said anything about times even in the ballpark of 13.3. I believe mid 13's (13.5 with a 1.8 60' ... that I believe). 13.3@105 with a 2.2 60' ... that I do not believe and if you sat down and thought about it you probably wouldn't believe it either. If it was a 13.3@105 with a 1.8 60' I be a lot more willing to accept it, unforutantely as the numbers sit now, they do not make any sense.

Again, I'm WAITING for you to show where I said LS1 cars can run 12's stock or I'd like you to retract your statement.
Your claimage (omg talking like bush) that I said LS1 Fbodys CAN run 12's damages my repuation as a troll on your forum. I want proof or a retraction on both rx7club.com and LSLost.com.
Have a nice day.
