11 seconds in Germany My car has been in the 13, 12, and now 11 second category this year. We race on an old Air Force runway in Bitburg Germany. We run once a month from May-Oct. Last month I ran a 12.42@109. The weather was hot and traction was not good. Yesterday the weather was cooler and I had added the Pace Setter headers and 3" off-road y-pipe. I was running 12.10s all day Saturday. I tried three different set of tires. BFG drag radials, M/T ET streets, and M/T ET slicks. No change what so ever. Sunday I was about to give it up when I decided to bolt on my BFGs and make one more pass. I launched the car a little lower and it responded with a 1.79 60'. I hit the rev limiter on the 1-2 shift. My et was 12.03@115. 
I went back for one more pass. Launched at the same RPM, did not hit the rev limiter, and here are the results:
1.72.....60'
7.59.....1/8 ET
91.46....1/8 MPH
11.90....1/4 ET
115.38...1/4 MPH
