Im pretty good at the show Pass Time, with a good driver and some kind of sticky tires, I am going to go with 11.75. With street tires, but not spinning ridiculously, I am going to go with 12.25. Let me know my prize.

I agree, maybe high 11s if everything goes your way and dead hook, but obviously people with 4000 converters know that they can pull tire off the line so if you come with a street tire that yank is gonna handle up and put the smack down on your rear hides. I say mid-high 12 with street tire
