Hell yes I have driven one hard, every body should atleast once, I mean sure their interior is not the greatest, they seem really big, they clunk and rattle, and outward visablility sucks. But they do haul *** and they do it well.

There are varying factors such as atmosphere, humidity, density (Altitude) that may have a car that runs 12.8's in one place run 13.3's in another.
ONe night a car may run 13.8's only next week run 14.2's because of these factors. Or do you know Mother Nature also, so she can clear the skies, suck away the humidity and make all things equal.

But it gives you a close idea on a car's power, and you can usually correct for alt. and weather conditions. Also that is why you should run your car every week so you can accumalate a avg.

Hmmm..He did that on 3 runs, and he was bone stock at that.
How about proof in them there Time Slips Buddy boy. Times that other members here have seen.

I find it hard that this magic Bullit traps 4-6mph higher than every other bullit running around but if it does I give it major props for a strong running car, but in all my time at dragstrips and all of my friends times at the drag strip that is 4mph higher than I have ever seen. Hell thats even faster the Evan Smith got it to run!
FWIW my friends LS1 with just a CAI (lid) went 12.88@113.59 I bet his could miss a gear and still smoke the bullit!
