I assume you're running alcohol injection...What system are you using?

Also, what are you using to mount the camera in the car?

Yes, methanol injection. Using one of the newer designed Devils Injection pumps, M10 nozzle. 50/50 meth/water.

Camera is just mounted to the headrest post with one of those small flexible legged tripods, but it's not as stable as I would like.

Does the car have a rollbar....not just for safety but for rigidity too? You're well under the 11.49 threshold that my track requires.

Keep up the great work!!

No reason for the juice! It would function just fine as a daily driver and drives like one, but I drive it mostly for pleasure...

Motor was built by BEI (Baker Engineered Inc) (HellbentS10) in Spring Lake, MI. JE forged pistons, Callies Comp Star rods, custom turbo cam grind, and a little work done to the heads. Using LS6 intake manifold. Cartuning Turbo kit with a 76mm Turbonetics turbo on it.

No, I've had this car for a couple of years now. Bought it stock with 6000 miles on it around two years ago and slowly began modding it.
