1/4 10.86 @ 125
I was running U4 fuel
Stock internal engine only bolt on's
Kerker 4-2-1, no can
Dyna Ignition
Knology wires
Stage 7
K&N filters
Front straped down
Speed shifting using clutch
Dunlop factory rear tire

You have the power for 11's just need practice on your 60' time. Strap the front end down and you'll probably get the 11 you want BUT The mph shows you need more power if you want to go faster then that. You need to be hitting trap speeds of 120-122 mph to have a chance to make the 10's.

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned here or not, but spend $20 and get a strap for your front end... You would be amazed how much lowering the front a few inches will make. The front wheel won't want to lift as easily.
Keep up the good work.

I don't have my slips handy, but I'm running pretty consistently in the 1/8 (all I've got near by). My 60' times suck and that's all there is to it. If you can't get that, you've got nothing. I actually got better times before I changed out the stock exhaust and was heavier. Need to tune some things.
Stock except for straight bars, Supertrapps with 8 discs each and removed the "Y" on the air box.
1/8: 7.5's - 7.6's (I'll update next time I go after I shim my needles)
1.8-1.9 60' times (SUCK!)
Original tire (burn it for 3-4 seconds)
MPH: 96-98 (not bad up top. crossing at top half of 3rd gear)
Haven't wheelied at the track. May try straps soon anway to cut down on front end travel at shifts. Also just ordered a digital tach with a shift light. The stock tach is worthless. You can't see it when you're draggin and tucked down.

Going to get a strap today. looking forward to testing it this wednesday. Quick question to the experts, if i remove the "T" off the airbox, will it help with my top end power or is the gain not enough to reduce my times? Thanks to everyone helping me in my quest to the 11's

You may actually lose time. The "Y" as it's called is usually better to shim a bit with washers and not remove it all the way.

Could you explain what you mean by this process? How do you 'shim the Y with washers'? :ummm:

So that would add a bit more air flow?

Now you're getting there. Launch a little harder to get the 60' to low 1.80's - mid 1.70's and you'll be 11.50's.

Isn't it pretty crazy what a few inches of lowering will do. Just think about all the small differences/combinations that you can do to make huge differences at the track. Keep up the good work!

Launched at 5500 to 6000 with an aggresive clutch release. Any more and i get tire spin even after a good burnout. Will have to play with tire pressure next time.
