First time spraying 100 shot

First time spraying 100 shot
My car is a '99 WS6 Trans Am with a lq4 and 6 speed manual. Last year I managed to run 11.73 @116mph. Car is a bolt on setup, lq4 with 799 heads, ls6 intake and injectors, vrx5 cam, 1-7/8" headers, 3" true duals. Made 400/382 on a dynojet. MWC tunnel mount torque arm, lower rear arms and panhard bar. Narrowes 8.8 rear with 4.10s and 26" slicks. 17x4.5 up front. No front sway bar and stock rear sway bar. Only weight reduction was passenger, rear seats, and spare tire.
This year I haven't changed much. Installed a MGW shifter, still running a stock ls7 clutch. Addded some Viking coilovers up front, stock rear shocks. Still had all the seats in it, and added a nitrous express proton kit I picked up cheap. Using a Nitrous outlet winmax window switch and car was set up to spray by pulling timing thru the traction control part of pcm. Sprayed 100 shot for the first time. Pleased with the results, I think if the other seats were out it may have went 10s. I also had a few tools in the back because I drove to the track and didn't want to leave anything laying out. I weighed the car at the local scrap yard and with me it was 3900lbs. Without me it was 3620.
Managed to run 11.21 @ 124 with a 1.58 60'. I need some rear shocks to help with the 60'. I think the trap speed is good enough for a high 10 second pass. Considering the weight and all I think it's pretty good.

Awesome job man. Bad *** shot with driver wheel up! I'd say you def got the speed for a 10. As you stated this is no light weight though. Either way sweet car!

Car looks killer and so do the launch photo. What wheels are those ?

Some double adjustable rears and a ARB would do wonders for that car (my T/A in sig used to launch like that). It runs 9.90 on a SBE 6.0 and a 150shot. For comparison, my other car SOMZ in sig went 10.5 full weight plus (cam only LS1 and a 150).
A little weight reduction and shocks and you are well into the 10's IMHO.
