The guy I raced ran a 12.806 at 104mph. I think with my mph and traction high 11's to low 12's are possible. I don't know what everyone else on here thinks?

Definitely 11's. My best is 12.11 @ 115.5mph with a 1.80 60'. Before I hooked up well I ran a 12.17 @ 117.9 with a 2.05 60'. The loss of mph was due to weather and not power shifting, so I think with traction you'll get an easy 11!

Nice numbers...
What are your mid track mph
i had 12.8 @113 with slipping clutch
and 2.3 60 ft
and 89 i believe for mid mph
Good work, yea if u can cut 4 tenths or a lil more in 60 ft they say every tenth in 60ft is worth 2 tenths in the 1/4 i have seen that with my timeslips very accurate

I was thinking of getting a set of Weld pro stars next year. I thought maybe with a smaller wheel and a bigger sidewall tire it might start to hook. I want to focus on my suspension and rear this winter though. Right now that's all stock.

I figured I would try 12psi because the last time I had the tires way too high. I ended up getting so much wheel hop, I knocked the synchro out of third and knocked 6 teeth of my ring gear.

I used to run my old ones at 16psi and do a decent burnout 1st and 2nd and let it come out of the water while spinning tires so it gets them hot yet gets all the water off. Thats how all the big guys said to do it. seems to work never had traction issues.
