At 3225 he already has lost some weight. I have a very close set-up(F14 112lsa, SS4000,3.73s,bolt-ons,susspension) but I'm closer to 3500lbs or more and I ran a 11.9 with traction problems. I had bfg drag radials and could not get it to hook. The 11.9 was with the tcs on. I still pulled 1.6 60s so with traction I think I could pull 1.4-1.5 and that would make your 11.5 goal very possible. Plus it was 80+ and humid when I went.
