From what Ive read people have gotten in the 11.8 range without LC by just mashing the gas without the use of powerbraking.

In full automatic mode and without LC, owners have gotten well below 12s on NAGTROC. Links to time slips will be provided when I'm not as lazy.

Remember, this car will lose to a Z06 in a drag race due to weight-power ratio, but will certainly beat one on a racetrack, as proven time and time again.
