Default Approx 200whp and 200wtq with 2900 lbs to pull

Most of the searches I come up with are guys with gutted *** interiors and all sorts of modifications that arent so street friendly.

Basically I'm pushing out 200whp and 200wtq somewhere in the 5000rpm out of a stock LS motor with a Greddy TD05H-18G mated to a GSR transmission. I'm a big guy and if you check my sig, you'll see that my car is in fuuuulll street trim. It should be around 2900-2950lbs with me in it.

Is it a pipe dream to think I can hit 13.9 with that weight and power on street tires? Particularly ES100's? I dont have plans on running slicks or whatever, I just want to see what it runs in full street trim, run what your brung action.
Thanks!

I have no numbers but we did mid 13's in a full weight DOHC delsol which weighed close to 2800lb with driver. That's with 1.8-2.0 60 ft times. The delsol made 198 with an all motor b16. You should have more torque to pull your weight around

At LACR Palmdale with only 204 whp All motor, My ITR full weight with myself driving it.. I way easy 250 lbs.. I ran 14.3 up there on street tires. LACR is easy .50 secs slower than Fontana. You should have no problem hitting a 13sec at Fontana

lol thats good to know. hmmm. it comes down to drag/launching skills. I'll admit it, I dont concentrate much of my time in the car learning all that stuff, so we'll see. My first run i'll shift briskly, but i wont be all gangsta with it..and then i'll go from there. I used to powershift back in the day, but i've yet to do it in the last couple years...
