L98, G92, Catback, slicks and some cold weather. You should have no problems hitting very low 14's.

I ran a 14.42 @ 95 with 135,000 miles, K&N's, crappy Cooper Cobra 245/50/16's and temps in the 60's. I'd expect low 14's for sure considering slicks and cooler temps. Good Luck!

My car went mid 14's pretty much untouched, but then again our track sucks where I race. I'd put you around a 14.3 But do tell us what you hit.

Tell your friend to run the camera, you should pick up at least 2 tenths without him in the car. They say you gain a tenth per 100 lbs dropped.
