I agree! While the first attempts at 1/4 mi are just starting to come in, for a new guy to just drive out to the track and post a completely stock 13.3 is impressive.
The tires that these things come with are a huge handicap on a drag strip and to do any better than a 2.0 60' is going to be just about impossible imo.
A race type tire that gets sticky when it gets hot (like a drag radial) would be a big help knocking a couple .1s off that 60'.
With completely stock trap speeds showing up in the 105+ range, I'm going to predict that with the usual bolt-ons (exhaust, pullys and maybe a decent cold air intake) we'll start seeing 110 mph finish line speeds and ETs solidly in the mid to high 12s.
Makes me want to do it but I'm getting the eye from the wife...lol.
