i was talking with some camaro buddies that told me there have been people with stock SS autos (400hp L99) getting into the 12s and had slips to back the claim up. i know how close the new 5.7 and L99 dyno at the wheels and the weight is pretty close if the R/T isnt fully loaded.
with all of that being fairly equal...wouldnt it be safe to say that if the R/T had better and wider tires like the Pirellis that come on the SS stock, we would see some stock R/T autos in the high 12s? there are a bunch of guys running low 13s now with the goodyears and i know guys with DRs are seeing 12s, but when you tell that to a camaro guy, they say "well thats not stock..you need drag radials...etc"
i'd really like to see a stock auto R/T with the same PZeros street tires that come factory on the SS and see what happens. anyone see or try it themselves?
