11s with street tires club !!!
Took my car to NED tonight the way I drive it to work everyday and nailed an 11.8@119.
ran 5 back to back runs and the car was trapping 118-120 all night.
My issues are solved and it was the spark plugs(they were all loose)Ill be hitting the dyno soon to see the real gains on my TB upgrade.My last attempt hit 502whp but with the a/f in the 10s and I was trapping 116 that same day at the track.
But dyno says 30whp up top end!!!

What tires? I hope that when I go in December'ish I can do 11s on street tires. Last time I tried I ran a 12.5 with absolutely horrendous 60ft times and found out that track had ZERO prep because there were no upcoming events so they didn't care to prep it. 
BTW- your mph are still low compared to your previous runs...what gives?

Im on pilot super sports.trap is low because of DA and worse 60ft running 11.888 with a 1.9 60ft is hard as hell to make up the trap speed.
I need to get into 3rd gear with as much track to go as possible to break 122.
I hit 122 with a 1.65 60ft

Hmmm...you are on pilot super sports...that's a bad *** tire. I doubt my Toyo T1R's can compete.

no codes, no limp, drove fine... I"ll get that fixed and next time I run I'll try my supersports too, I love the tire. I want to get back up to a 123-4 trap and down below an 11.6...thanks for the help again. Wish we had a video of our two runs against each other... of course you'd have to show them both. You hooked better than I in the left lane without DR's. Nice pedaling.

Nice. I am at the track right now too, gonna do one more pass. Weather is high 70s and humidity is around 80 so not the greatest. My street tires suck, can't do better than 2.0 on these General Exclaim UHP 275/30/19s
12.19@120.2 is all I can muster. Definitely need better tires and maybe some better weather too! DA was 1737ft.

I have pulled low 1.7's with T1-R's and Stock LSD. Best on slicks so far is only 1.68 but I have only run the DR's in the dead of summer with IAT's in the 120's just from sitting in the lanes.
