Default Looking for 11's on street tires M6

This fall I might try running my car again and feel like 11's on a pure street tire (non dr) would be a realistic goal for me to meet. So far the car has been a 12.37@115 on a 2.08 60' on bald nitto 555'rs before my dyno tune and thru the stock dual/dual catback in warm weather (as on a mail order at the time car should be about 25hp more now) Car ended up making around 410hp and 381 ft lb afterward but a ripple in the graph made it show 414 before my fast 90/90, ssra, and thundermouth catback will be getting it retuned soon. Does a 11 anything sound realistic on street tires I was thinking if I could squeeze out a 1.8ish 60' it would put me really close in good weather? Looking at getting a bmr adj torque arm with the trans relocation and picking up set of stock 10 spoke wheels so they'll be a little lighter than my current tt2's.
Car mods:
226 Comp cam, Asp underdrive, lt's thundermouth catback with ory, fast 90/90, spec 3 clutch, stock 10 bolt w/3.42s, ssra, lid, bmr relocation's, lca's. I'm sure I'm forgetting something but what else should I be looking at doing besides some more time at the track?

you'd have to be one hell of a driver to cut a 1.8 60' on a true street tire at those power levels.

Yeah I know it's a slim chance, I've got 1.9's out of it but the stock clutch wasn't very willing

cam only making 409 @ the wheels in a 6-speed car I went 12.30@118. 275/40/17 bfg kdw. the 60ft was a 2.071. made 3 more passes all 12.30s. I didn't push it real hard but i don't see the street tire working much faster than a 1.90 60ft or so with my 6-speed car.

He wants to do it on a true street tire, not even a drag radial. So slicks are out of the question. Theres no doubt it can be done I know a local guy here that went 11.90s with a stroker and street tires. He did it with his ASR on as well

I'll give it a whirl when the air cools off some, I can't go with much of a tire since I'm still on the 10 bolt and a new rear isnt a option at the moment.

You need suspension pieces, a rear, a real tire, and the will to let it fly off the limiter.

The issue is that once you really start getting after the car and trying to get up on that tire, its going to do the "Spin or Bog" scenario.

Which will prompt you to do 2 things, buy a real tire like a Bias Ply, so that when you hit and hit hard that tire is going to hold. At the same time the rear I am sure will be ready to puke it's guts out so there is at least a 12 bolt in your future.

Add on top of that a GOOD clutch set up with a Tick Perf. Master Cyl to help with clean shifts.

I guess what it will boil down to is do you want to chase a number? or do you want to be fast and consistant. Having great air quality is certainly an advantage but I would not be bragging about a 11.99999x slip to anyone, especially if you had to go to Atco in Early December to get it.

****, I can't even hit a 12 it seems trapping what your trapping cutting 2.1, 2,0 60fts. I don't understand how your not spinning to **** with that much power.

Race Weight- Camaros are Lighter, Driver could be 120 lbs soaking wet,

Driver- good track prep, or slipping the hell out of the clutch. OR just letting it bog off the line which is what I suspect.

Not looking for bragging right its all personal for me, I wouldnt care if it was a 11.999 lol. I would do a rear but this thing rarely ever sees the strip with the fact we're rebuilding a backhalved 10W Nova this car isn't the drag machine
I was slipping the clutch and the air quality was horrible because it went almost 117 untuned on a better night... 60' was horrible though

Probably had a leaf blow across the trap beams right before you crossed lol. That car was fairly consistant until your last pass which you randomly managed to go .26 faster?

By that time of the night, the DA probably dropped, the car had a chance to cool down and I was shifting like a **** after all those hot laps, lol.
