RIGHT..., what I said ..... you will need drag radials to pull off an 11 second run ... the converter will just make life easier with pulling a much better 60 ft time ......

It took me 5 passes to get down to 11.72 at Indianapolis in 2016. Slippery track for mostly well worn BS S04 tires plus 2500 DA (mid 80's temps) made for a tough night. A few years before that, I managed 11.44 at PBIR in FL on Invos, but the track was better and the DA was around 500.
It's no fun running on street tires when you can spin them at will.

These guys just posted up this video in probably the best conditions you can ever ask for. -1500 DA + Sticky track. Hellcats with DRs running 10.60s.. Just wish there was a Z06 there. Shows you just how much conditions and prep are.

Factor in a 3200 converter and drag radials if you are really looking for a 11.7 ...
Dave
do at least a 3600 stall for better results
