13.8? What are u smoking? At SLP day at mid-michigan motorplex a guy who raced for the first time in his Supra TT with just an exhaust ran 12.8 to 12.7's. Now if ur talking about the VR4 or Stealth TT then I have heard mid to high 13's stock from them. But he is right, about low 13's for stock supra tt's.

13.9? with a bad driver maybe for the WS6, The owner of the body shop where I get my work done has a 2000 black WS6 6 Speed. Ran a best of 13.2 COMPELTELY stock, the most he might have done is let some air pressure out. not even a K&N.

He's shown me slips and pics with his time illuminated on the board and his car in view on the track, and I know his car is completely stock

is .3 away from breaking into the 12's rare for a LS1 F-body or is this normal, does he maybe have a factory freak?

its normal
i know a dude in a 2000 TA, that ran a 13.01 @ 107.....of course he had one of the best 60 footers ive ever seen on a street tire Fbody
i also know a dood that only mustered a 13.9x on his automatic 2002 WS6 TA, with obviously a pathetic short time. but i think he did it on a hot day

No that is not a factory freak at all just a good driver that knows the car verry well. Hell the 02's run 12.8 stock. nothing done with not even a grand in miles on it. Those cars are just plain sick. LS1 block of the future.

Nice work! What program did you use to make those images? I used Adobe Illustrator.


I drew my car and even made an animated cartoon out of it too! Its a flash animation and I don't think they load on here........but here is a picture of my car I that I drew anyway.

Yes I drew them myself. I used Adobe Illustrator. I'll see what I can do about drawing some of your cars, but we just got really busy this week so I don't know how much car drawing I will do. Anyway, about all this discrepency about 1/4 mile times. I JUST PULLED THEM OFF A RANDOM WEBSITE!!! They are in no way supposed to portray real track times. Just took the first ones I found, that's all! Thanks for the compliments!
