  1. We have three locals with them. Not sure on the years and difference between them. I've seen 12.8, 12.9, and 13.1. I have a time slip against the 13 sec one. He was a young guy at the track for the first time so I wouldn't hold that against the car.

    By the way I'm not trying to bash the car. I love them. If I wasn't a GM/LSx fan boy and hell bent on the CTS-V, I'd like to own one.

    My initial statement pertains to all makes and models. I own a cammed TBSS. I remember when I got it and read it ran high 13s stock. The track is similar to the term lab. It can really hurt your feelings if your expectations are high.

  2. The IS-F may run mid 12s in perfect conditions and great air, but they're running high 12s, low 13s more times than not. Anytime you see a listed 1/4 mile time for a car that's on a track with good prep, good temp, good da, and an experienced driver.

    You see it all the time at the track when guys bring their stock cars expecting to run a time they saw on the Internet only to feel down afterwards. When they don't take all the variables into play.

    Stock naturally aspirated cars are affected by weather conditions more than the modded or forced induction ones.
