Sounds like a street tire or drag radial run. I believe Pat runs on full racing slicks. Did they post the times? I'd like to see its 60' and trap speed. Theres so many factors that come into play. Corrected altitude, track temp, air temp, humidity, slicks, street tires, veh weight with driver etc.

I'm sure you D series guys have heard of Mista Bone right? He ran a 13.09 in his hatch with a Z6 and Zex...what he rarely mentions is it was fully gutted to hell, traction bar mods, slicks, home depot front lip, front bumper thats almost completely blocked off to reduce drag, rear bumper REMOVED for less drag, hybrid short ratio tranny blah blah blah...

Horsepower/Torque doesn't mean too much if you can't put it to the ground. My car defintely wouldn't be as quick without my tires (drag radials & slicks), clutch, springs/struts, solid motor mounts, and LSD.
