i dun see DRs...
mods list says drag bags...no other mods.
but to run 11's its still gonna take a good 600hp or so. possibly more when your car is that heavy
365ish to 600 is impressive

He does have a pretty good trap speed. On the highway that would hang with most 600cc sportbikes.

its pretty good for no suspension mods no weight reduction stock tq converter and all that. i bet getting suspension setup a bit better and a nice stall converter youd be in the low to mid 10's

A quick car by any measure, but to hold the title of world's fastest, I would expect it to be a bit quicker then low 11's.

stock wise they suck, i thought the G8's were suppose to be pretty quick...quicker then the SS/SC but i raced one a few times and he ran about 1.5secs slower then me. Dispite that i have a tvs, im still on stock header/dp/exhaust so im getting alot of back presure so im loosing alot of power

LMAO, you make me laugh. Not only did your comment have no value to the interest of this thread but you managed to make yourself look like an immature punk who feels the need to insult people over the internet. Congratulations...
