HUH!!!!!!! WHAT PROOF? A time slip that cam out of thin air, and a quote from a magazine owned by the car it's competing with(GM= General Mistakes). That's far from proof, the proof that I've seen with my own 2 eyes is that the best run I've ever seen a GTO make 13.701(which is by no means slow for a stock vehicle) and the best run I've seen the SRT-8 make is 13.29(then it made a run on slicks @ 12.69). Don't you think that if that vehicle stock was running 12's it would be flying off dealership lots instead of possibly getting scrapped after 06 becuase it's not selling. As a matter of fact GM is in the process of phasing the entire Pontiac line cause it has no profitable product in it's entire line.
