A 05 Vette I doubt would do 12.95, stock anyways. Maybe a Z06 but not a normal one. I never had one, but it doesn't seem like that time sounds right.

Some of the guys here laughed when I posted in the spring how one time when my wife was driving the HHR SS and I was in the Z06, we were at the light at the same time. I let her get the jump so I could hear the SS, but could not catch up before the next stop a ways down the road. The SS when on the boil is pretty quick actually. Ours sometimes just starts squalling the tires when it hits about 20 or so in first. (5 sp). Now both cars at the track, no contest, but you know in city driving, its the driver, and the circumstances, that rule.
