Assuming the car transfers weight to the rear & it hooks up good enough it should squeeze a low 13.

Depends solely the driver.
If it's my wife driving, about 5-1/2 minutes after the tree is lit she'll stop talking and put the car in gear.
Another minute and a half to break the beam on the far end, let's call the ET right at 7 minutes on the nose.
I think I've been stuck behind her on the way to work...damn near every day of my life since I moved here. Why isn't she working in Oregon?? Feel free to pass her on the right. Everyone else does.

What E T could one expect a 3,500 pound car to do with 380HP? 380hp at the crankshaft or 380hp at the rear tire? Big difference.

My son has a 2016 Dodge Charger that will do 6.8 1/8 mile at 110 mph. It has around 950 at the wheels. He will run 1/4 at Bristol later this month.

The magazines tell me my stock car will run 11.4. Ill take their word for it since traction on the street under 25 mph is unobtainable on "normal" tires. She can also run a pretty quick lap on a road course:) https://youtu.be/t4zSIVpVMaw
My biggest fear is when I die my wife will sell my guns for what I told her they cost.

Traction, gearing, transmission, all make a big difference. Today's Mustang GT often breaks into the high 11's and low 12's with the 10spd auto, factory tires, and somewhere around 410 wheel horsepower (460 crank rating). This is at a weight around 3800-3900lbs. The manual trans cars can't touch the 10spd auto on the drag strip.
Now with even more aplomb

The automatic and traction control are hard to beat when fender to fender with a stick shifter.

Its 2021.If your car can`t do the eighth mile in just over 3 seconds you better stay home.
Its all right to be white!! Stupidity left unattended will run rampant Don't argue with stupid people, They will drag you down to their level and then win by experience

Snowolfe. Nice ride. I’ve watched that vid a couple times before. Gives you a real idea what it’s like to really drive hard.

You wankers make it so complicated. Drop it from a chopper and it will hit 120mph before it’s traveled 200’.
