Another 11 sec. club member

After lots of track time and a few bolt on mods (see sig. below), I finally got into the 11's last night at the Texas Motorplex in Ennis, Texas.
Weather conditions: Temp. 60 degrees, Baro. pressure 29.85, humidity 50%
Track conditions: Good prep
Tires: BFG DR's

My first run of the night was 12.221 @ 116.83 (60' 1.871). Launched at 3800 rpm, bogged a little. Also bumped the rev-limiter on 2nd - 3rd shift.
My second run was 12.181 @ 116.25 (60' 1.814). Launched at 4000 rpm, slight bog, and hit rev-limiter again on 2 - 3 shift So there was still room for improvement and I put it together for my third run. Smooth launch at 4500 rpm, no bog, and clean shifts at redline (6500 rpm). It felt great and I knew it was an 11 sec. run before I ever got my timesplip.
I ended the night on that run!!
My numbers:
R/T ... .173
60' ... 1.753
330 ... 4.999
1/8 ... 7.677
MPH ... 92.97
1000 ... 9.965
1/4 ... 11.892
MPH ... 117.67

Do yall think there's still room for improvement?

My best run bone stock (except borla exhast and zip-tied K&N) was 12.287.
60' was 1.958 on the F1SC tires.

Damn, I'm impressed. Basically headers, BFG's and seat time dropped you a total of .4sec. I would imagine with a little more seat time there would .2 left in it as is. But I am no expert by any means.

Congrats on a very fine run.. Seat time paid off,

I would say you could get another .1 or .2 out of it.. But that just depends on the track.

And welcome to the 11 second club....

Nice runs! I'd say there's more left in her, but how much more depends on your capabilities, the track prep & the weather that day...I'd guess, in a perfect world, there should be a solid .3-.4 left in her...

Congrats, GREAT run Doc

I knew you would get to the 11's soon.

We need to bolt my E.T. Streets on your car and you will see 1.6 60' times on a well prep'd track.

Thanks everyone. Yall are right....seat time and practice made all the difference! Mods help a little...in moderation. Otherwise, you have to learn how to drive the car all over again from scratch. For example, there was a guy out that same night who had a 2001 w/ SC (magnuson) and cam putting down over 500 to the rear wheels. His best run was mid 12's simply because he could not put the power down w/o breaking the tires loose. Will take him lots more practice to harness all that power.
