I want an 11.99 et. I think I have the trap speed for an 11.99. My best et is a 12.2. My best 60' is 1.9. I'm on 315 nittos but have brand new 275 et streets. I slip the clutch, never dump it. I don't want to break an axle if I can help it.

I don't know that much about track stuff but i think you have the trap for an 11 sec pass also. Do you have a brace? I would try a lower rpm and work your way up. Hope that helps...

what gears do you have? also, you can run a 11 second time on the nittos just get the air low enough in them and they will hook good enough. i would launch around 4000 or 4500 and load up the rear tires just enough to not shock them then slip out really fast.

U should be able to get into the 11s with that trap. I ran an 11.94 at 117 with a 1.73 60ft. This was on nitto drag radials 275-40-17s with a 3K rpm quick slip launch out the hole. Bring that 60ft down and u will get there.
