I'd say you need around 325 whp. I have 325 whp, but my best time is only 12.5, but with a really bad 60' foot at 1.81. I just need more practice on my launches, and with a good driver hitting 1.6 short times you can expect times in the 12.00 range.

you can do it with 300 at the wheels. Hooking up at the line and some good 105mph traps should get you damn close.
