10s are nothing.

a 10 second 1/4 is more impressive than I think most people realize. Takes quite a bit of work, power, parts, and practice.

2013 GTR... 1/4 mile in 10.8 @ 125 mph

But not a whole lot to do in that car to get those kinds of times consistently. Kinda like a Ronco Rotisserie Oven. Just set it and forget it.

Or a plain ole 5.0. Spend a few bucks on a blower and a set of ET streets and you're there. Hell they even get there NA (with a bit of weight reduction.)

The Z, though... yes 10s would be impressive. AFAIK the quickest 370 is running low 11s.

In which case, you could argue that the Z is a terrible platform compared to so many other choices.

If you want to take it to any one extreme it kinda is. It just doesn't have a robust aftermarket, especially for straight line stuff... it's practically nonexistent. Road track support is much better.

Lol I know, what I meant was an out of the box car that doesn't cost a crapload of money that can run 10's.

Low 11's is pretty damn quick in a 370. Is that in a built 7AT?
