Shooting for low 11s... is it possible?
So I am doing some winter mods and trying to get in the 11s a bit... However I have been told that I will not make it and will be lucky to go low 12s.
The only problem i see is they dont really prep track on the night im going.
Anyways heres what I got :
1998 formula with 4l65 3500 tci stall, 3.42s, torque arm, lca's, sfc's, ported tb, lid, k&n, lt's with ory and cut out, 150 wet shot and bfg 255 50 16 drag radials.
I have also pulled some weight out... bumper supports, front sway bar, ac, all factory audio, and pass seats.
Ive gone as fast as 12.80 with a 2.2 60 but that was with a t56 before the auto swap and nitrous. I am pretty confident the car will do 11.20-11.40 or am I expecting too much.

With that stall, if you can hook you WILL lower that 60' a few tenths and that should smoothly bring you into the 11's. I'm gonna call 11.6 on the spray (and only if you hook those 255 DRs). Report back. This is like pass time
