Default Hitting 11's with bolt ons?
Ok, so I know this is childish and whatnot, but I'm currently arguing on another forum that an F-body CANNOT hit low 11's with a stock cam, stock heads, and no spray or blower. Is anyone on here below a 11.5 with a setup matching the above. The guy I'm arguing with says it's easy to low 11's w/ bolt-ons. Am I underestimating my own car here? Thanks.

My car is an A4, but this is just more of an "in theory" type debate. So far i gather it's possible with really short rear-end gears and drag radials. I guess it just depends on how highway-friendly you want the car to be?

11.40s at 115mph on a 28in Stiff sidewall ET drag. That is when I had stock suspension except for LCAs.
