They run on avg. mid-low 14's but with a gear slicks and some bolt on's it can run 12's very easily

My 91 LX ran a 14.6 a month after I bought it brand new, with 500 miles on the clock, full tank of gas and spare tire still mounted in the hatch, just like I drove it off the dealers lot.

My 88 GT with stock 3.08 gears and BFG Comp T/A street radials went 13.92 @ 97 mph with the only aftermarket modification being a Hurst shifter. Gotta love those speed density cars. Mark302 had some pretty impressive times with his winter beater too!

Mine had 3.08's. I ran across the time slips not too long ago, I remember because my 60 ft times were in the 2.3-2.4 second range (first time at the drag strip) and I laughed thinking to myself "that's not very good..."
