"seat time" LMFAO kidding me? lol
ITS DRAG RACING! You mash the gas and press the little paddles. and let the cars overkill computer system do the rest
a pro drag racer vs. avg joe could probably only sqeeze an extra tenth from that car just from reaction time. thats it i would think

QFT! still pretty fun to be on the strip every once in awhile. if anyone's curious there was a GTR that was hitting 11's stock at sac raceway a few months ago so whoever's hitting 12s is just slow driver haha.

i expected more from the gtr.. i thought the corvette gets high 11's stock? i hear if you put drag slicks on the vette you can hit high 10's stock. isn't the gtr supposed to be faster than the vette?

It could depend on the track too...people who go drag at infineon raceway rather than sac generally hit higher times due to higher wind and the upslope toward the end of the drag strip
