Question How fast is your daily driven car?

How many people here have a car that runs high 12's-low 13's as an every day car.

Talking

I do, and though I am sure there are much faster ones out there, mine runs low, low 12's in full street trim (I am sure it would be well into the 11's with slicks and power shifting)and weighing in at around 3700lbs. Also, it is set up for handling so has a very poor suspension for 1/4 mile runs and I am still learning how to drive it at the track... It's too fun not to be a daily driver!!

------------------
92GT all the free stuff and a few bolt-ons, lowered with Ebiach's and Koni's, Kenny Brown subframe connectors, lower G-brace and jacking rails. BBK upper and lower control arms, polyurethane bushings all around and Ken Bell blower, ram-air, 80mm mass air, etc.

Mine may not be that fast, but I know that I can get to 60 in under 10 seconds, without even power shifting

0-60 in 10 seconds is not fast. I hope your stang is not your daily driver. I had Dodge Colt that would do 0-60 in 10 seconds.

Judging by the speedo, mine does 0-60 in less than 2 seconds on ice.

13.2 so far but I think by the time I'm done (if you include some N2O) I'll be able to maintain the streetabilty of it and run low 11s.
