It was very humid and warm - storms moving in, and the track was hard to get a good launch on. Respectable numbers for those conditions.
I believe you, and nothing wrong with a 13.6. IMO, the driver is the biggest factor in a race. I just pointed out that with equal drivers, the Camaro is faster.
By chance, what times were other Challengers (RT and SRT) and Camaros running?
