Damn,i was really hoping for an 11 sec timeslip today, but just wasnt meant to be! I think its mostly cause i suck, because i was barely able to match my old 60 ft(1.98) with the my new set of drag radials... i couldnt figure it out, the launches FELT damn good, but the clock was tellin a diff story... some how was able to manage a 1.97 60 ft, and powershifted my way to a 12.07 et. No matter how i launched,i was stuck with 2.1-1.97 60 fts. The only thing that REALLY went good for me, was i made my MPH goal. I was hoping for 117-118 mph, and made that on my first run... then, on my best run, i some how did 119.9!!!!
So, as of today, my best is 12.07 @119.9

That's sweet. How much boost are you seeing? No doubt with a little more practice, you'll get your 11.9!

Congrats Miles. When I hit my 11.92 I only trapped a 116, and that was a full interior vert.
I also had Et streets.
With a 1.8 60ft you have 11's all day.
Are you coming tomorrow?

With more practice it sounds like you will be into the 11's.

Forget all this practice noncence. Lets through a 8.8 back there and some ET Streets 1.7's will get you deep in the 11's
