11.87@119 with a 1.82 60'

My one and only (so far) sub 11 sec run...turns 12.0's all day long
Renntech 178 pulley, Heyvron shorty headers with both cats, k&n's, split cooling with tiny under hood res, plm HE w cm-30 and Jeremy tune.
BTW, do drag radials improve trap speed or just et's???

Okay I'm in. This was in 80degree weather and about 70 percent humidity.
My car ran 11.42
1.6 60'
121mph
while spinning the driverside rear tire.
Bad track prep and no LSD.
Mods are in my sig.
Full weight on MT ET Streets. (they fu**ing suck) need some hoosiers. lol
No "magic" track either!

Taking it one step further, what works on car "A", might not be optimal on car "B". Why? Vehicle weight, suspension (hard or soft hitting), and even burnout routine will change what pressure you want to run.
MagicTrack??? I've heard of that, for internet phone calls...lol
No magic here either, some tracks are better than others...and some cars are better sorted out...and some drivers have more experience with a better touch.
No reason to hate though, your beast is running strong and keeps getting stronger!

I have another slip to add from yesterday. Quick run down, went to the track to help a friend get his car sorted out. Couldn't resist making a few passes as well. Ran my car with zero prep: no ice in trunk tank, new 19" Hankook evo v12 (didn't even touch the pressure), full weight...exactly how she is everyday, after driving 3+ hours to the track.
Was warned not to run under 11.5 or I would not be able to run again. Game over for full run! I made a couple 1/8th mile passes instead.
On the plus side: Great DA.
On the minus side: Track was too cold for street tires so I couldn't launch hard. There was a strong head wind killing MPH as well.
I was happy just to be back behind the wheel. After almost 18 months from my cervical fusion, I finally got the green light to live again.

And the magic he speaks of would come in the affect of the way below sea level DA from cold unhumid air that some northerners get to have which does some magic on making cars go much faster. Such as a -2000 DA that was at test n tune the other night where Ahmad showed a ZR1 run a 10.2@135 stock.

You are thinking of magic jack for internet calls

You know I was only making a joke, right...lol
No magic...just mother nature at work, and good prep.
That's why everyone should concentrate on their own PB, not others.
Make the trip if it's that important to you. If not, there is no reason to tarnish someone's results because they made the effort. just saying

I realize you have it tough racing down there. Even with those challenges, you are doing very well. Your 60's are really good!

I dont know how they're holding up yet. I found out i need to add a little fuel to the tune now so that should help a little too. I wish i had waited and let the car cool down before i made that pass on nitrous but it was getting late. Even with the ice tank heat soak with this big pulley happens very fast and that was my third run in a 10 minute span. Hopefully you make it down to the next rental and we can do some side by side runs. I'm trying to get my diff in this week so traction shouldn't be a problem anymore
I ran a 10.98 yesterday...not too bad...but the trunk tank was indeed hot as hell after runs..
im only running a 185...
