haters crazy
With proper tires or the street tire master launcher Clayton yes. According to Vbox data my car did 2.6s 0-60mph but that was at the track. It takes practice to get the power down, especially on street tires.

Granted you have sticky tires that can grip...no problem!

I'm thinking you could do a sub 4 stock with drag radials.
Blackbenzz, with a time like that you should go play with a veyron. So long as its under a 100mph. 2.6 is ridiculously awesome!

DR's help...but keep it in C mode and feather the throttle rather than WOT right off the bat or you are going to be just going nowhere really fast (i.e. no traction).

Ahmad is the master of launches with 0-60 times to die for. Hopefully one day I'll be able to get close to his times but very doubtful on a stock tranny and torque converter, which may be going on soon!!!
Ahmad, you would you recommend for a torque converter? The only who I know of is EC but I prefer to go a different route. I'm looking for a mild stall converter somewhere in the range of 2200.
The only 0-60 I have logged with a Vbox is with Hammer Downs setup which was a 2.8. The next time I hit the track up I'll launch with my drag pack and see what I come up with. As for street tires....useless for me unless at a private rental.
