One of my favorite cars I've owned was my 2008 g8gt, bone stock it ran 13.80 and had 361 hp at the crank, it was Ls2 with L92 heads and 6 speed auto. I added headers, Cai, exhaust and hand held tuner and it ran 13.30's on street tires and 13.11 with drag radials. The V6 with 335 hp ran 13.60, so what I'm trying to say is its a pretty awesome drive train package with the 8 speed auto. Way to go GM and the Camaro LT1 also kicked their asses in the V8 showdown, by a bunch. However I did add a Maggie to my g8gt and it ran 11.80's w/ drag radials and there have already been a couple guy that have run 11.70's with drag radials with the SS. Brilliant I say.
faster than my supercharged V6 Challenger.
