I would expect it to be running quite a bit faster for spraying while on the fastest track in the world. Those looked like stock or lightly modded times/trap speeds for sea level. There's at least 3 STRs in the 12s on this forum, and none are on the bottle.

The XFR is his as well.

The times are on the UK forum, in May last year he did a 12.99 on the bottle, after a 14.2 without.

The guys on the UK forum really struggle for traction off the line, when I was there with the XJR last year I was the quickest until he ran the 12.99 at the end of the day.

Here is a vid from last year. Sorry about the F-bomb at the end, like I said, I was the quickest on the day until that run...

That last video in the original post is priceless lol. Dude needs to get some drag slicks for the rear haha. He smoked it half way down the track! Great videos and thank you for sharing! I love the STR, with or without N2O.
