Blades can give you the explanation for why his crack into the 12s doesn't compare to mag times. I've explained it once, and you seem to have missed it. And no one runs the z low 12s stock....

That run was all just luck. Perfect conditions + perfect time = that run. Haven't been able to get into the 12's again after that run, not even after modding. Just because it happened once doesn't mean it is the norm. That was a run under ideal conditions, which is never the case 99.99% of the time so it doesn't really mean anything. Look at the average times people are getting, that's a better indication of a car's capability.

And published times are corrected. I think that run corrected to a 13.2 or so. Still fast, just pointless to compare to a time that has had the correction applied.

Also, the non-stock rear tires likely affected the time by allowing controlled wheelspin

Shush! I think it was corrected to a 13.0 from what I remember. I checked a while ago though.

Or maybe the stock tires would have had no wheelspin at all so I could have done a little better????

Haha, or you would have bogged

Looking back, 13.16 is the Corrected time I see...which is pretty beast
