Well I would say that most guys can't drive well enough to hit 12's without a few mods. Sure if you practice alot and drive very well you can hit 12's with just exhaust, gears and sticky tires.Chances are you will blow up the rear end in the process. I see alot of GT's with 250-300 hp at the wheels stuck in the 13's. It's all in the driving.
