Mods on the 1st question, stock cam and no weight reduction other that the 17s. Car has not been on a dyno but for being an L99 I'd say maybe 375rwhp or so.

I am running Racestar's 17x4.5 with a 26" hoosier street tire. Out back is 17x12 Weld RTS with a 295/45/17 M/T drag radial. 17s are the smallest he can go unless he gets a BMR 15" conversion to fit 15s ($3,900) I would have him look into Welds for the best price. Any other 17 won't clear the brembos. The Racestars will clear but the 17s they sell for back won't clear the rear. Reason I did that is less money lol.

IDK whatever a stock SS weights minus the 20s and add my 260lbs lol. I wanna try some weight reduction before the year ends and try to get deeper into the 11s.

Mine was like 4170 with me in it, I'm 220 or so.

But I hit 3950 a while ago, might be lower.

Your getting close! Why not launch off idle? I tried launching at 1500 and all I would do is spin! I am very egar to try a slick vs a drag radial I can't dead hook at this point! try launching it around 600rpms and stomp it (if you can hook) !

Remove the Front Sway Bar & install some 90/10 shocks of the front.
They say Air Bags installed inside the rear coils can help with traction also.

You need more weight transfer to the rear tires. Lower your tire pressure 18-20 psi.

Yeah I could try off idle again, haven't launched that way in a while.

I was running my 18" DR's at 16-17 psi.

I am actually driving up to Ryan here soon and get the TCM dialed in! I don't like tap shifting it at the track lol. I really wanna see 11.85s next time out!

I discovered that my car likes to launch off idle vs brake stalling it
