That's not too fast if it is 750BHP (it's still BLUMMIN fast tho 8) )

The Rennlisters maintain a top 10 table of 944T dragtimes and it's currently headed by a 450BHP car at 11.987. Te 3rd place car at 12.228 also has circa 450BHP and has a video of the run. Its the black car on the left in the 2nd run:
