cut down your 60 and you'll probably dip into the 13s

200 MPH? typo? Anyway 110 MPH is still around mid to high 12's so I wouldnt worry about that until you get some more mods.

ive heard of few f-body's that came with none Z rated tires that were governed to 110mph, it all depends what tires your car orginaly came with.

BTW: try not to spin the tires and youll probly get into the 13's, and lastly dont wait to shift till you hit the rev limitor that will slow you down.
