I know its not the best method of counting but its all I had at the time.

Not trying to disagree, but if ya look at the secs at the bottom of the screen, it starts as soon as the vid, takes it bout 10 to get to 120..

Ive Driven A New Corvette... And With Minor Mods Taht Thing Must Have Had Slicks To Pull Off That Vid....

Those Things Have Horrible Traction With The Traction Control Off

Btw That Light Meant That Trac Control Was Disabled...

But The Speed For 12-13 Sec Is Believable... But I Would Say Something Up.... Especially Tire Wise... Because Anyone Whos Driven A New Vette Knows Taht The Stock Tires Will Be Burned Clear Off From A Dead Stop

The driver posts on digitalcorvettes.com, he's apparently dipped into the 10's. He has longtubes, VR intake and a few other minor bolt-ons. I'm sure he is on DR's in the video.
