All it has to do is knock out a good 60' time. 108-110 mph can be enough to hit a 12.9 if you kill the 60'. It may take one hell of a launch but its at least "possible" imho. But until its done cant really disregard what you have said either. I guess time will ultimately tell.
I'm not sure how they're getting those numbers, but they're not gonna happen on a completely showroom-stock 370Z on a real track. Perhaps they're using some method of estimation for their results that doesn't jive with a real track's timing methods.
