13.66,
Bone Stock 00 GT. Saw it personally, and have the vid. Same guy ran 13.7 in a 02 GT. The Ottawa boys on svtperformance can back it up.
Don't remember the MPH.

Well Most 99-04's GT's will run with a normal driver 14.2 -14.0. That is about avg. But with any car when a good driver gets ahold of it i have seen 13.9 and 13.8 all the time at the track with a good driver... a buddy of mine who just passed away ran a 13.7 at 99 mph with a 1.9 60FT..

i went 14.40 in mine @97mph but of course that was in the middle of the summer. I know i cant drive, plus my clutch was screwed since i got the car so i think it may be able to grab a little harder than what it did

I ran several sub 14s in my 00 GT, we don't have a track here though, newly laid interstate, timed with a gtech pro, (which I'd say is not exact but prob within .2 or so. Ran a 13.82 and 13.75. Car had Nittos and 3.73 gears. I'm also at sea level and had some nice cool air that night. I didn't believe the 13.5 run on a diff date, something wasn't set right. The car just wasn't that fast.
The car was capable of high 13s but it wasn't quick enough to keep me happy. Not after a stealth that ran mid to low 12s. Last dec I traded it in for an 04 term.

I have pretty good faith in my launch abilities in that car, but I haven't figured out how to launch the terminator yet, keep finding it feels better without traction control, and i've only had bad wheel hop once. But then again, I haven't played with it much, not with the tires i have on it now.

Thats about a 13.8-13.9 in the 1/4 mile. With my shitty pass with a 2.35 60' I ran a 13.83 in the 1/4 with an [email protected] 1/8th mile.

what was your trap? My car traps so damn high for some reason. With just catbacks and midpipe i trapped 102 and ran 13.91 with a 2.09 60'

99.7 on that run, but it was pretty hot out and my window was down. For an 81.55 1/8th mile trap I should be trapping higher than that in the 1/4. I guess at higher speeds it could of caused some resistance.

I've trapped 102 on a 14.2 run before, with a 2.4 60'

You've got too much tire spin at the launch, try feathering the clutch a little more.

You might even try launching from idle and working your way up.

At our track, you cannot run with your window down.

Mine either, I left my car in the staging lanes with my window down for like an hour and when I came back it woulden't roll up. When I got up to the tree I talked to the track official about it and he said he would let me run that time but I needed to get it fixed before I could run again.
