If the car is that fast, that means a lot of modifications, and usually the more modified a car is, the more it breaks down, the more money it costs, the more time it takes, and so on and so on... That's my guess.

they know what they're doing... I know of a miata (4 cylinder) that was a 9 second car with its original motor, no motor swap, just a lot of work.

Will that is the difference between a tube chassis 1750 lbs race car and a 2900 lbs OE body street car. the heaver you are the more power you need to run the times. The xB ran the 12.97 at 18 psi on slicks and a buillt motor.
