Default Input/guessing.

Looking to see if anyone with similar mods have gotten into the 10s.
I've got an 07 base c6.
Cam/full exhaust, yank 3600 and a 100 shot.
Weill be heading down to Vegas for LS fest.
Ran the car back in December with a DA of 3600 with just cam/full exhaust on stock converter and nitto 555r on the stock wheels, Did a best of 12.4@118
This time I'll be running C5z 17x9.5 wheels on the rear with 305-45-17 MT street R.
With the stall, 100 shot and better meat out back, a 10.99 should be doable as long as weather is nice that day I would think.
What do you guys think? Or have experienced with similar mods and such.
Track is 2000' above sea level as well.
Thank you guys!

That 9.5" wide rear wheel is pretty narrow for a 305/45 -17 drag radial.

I also have 305/45 -17 ET Street drag radials on the back of my GS, but I have them mounted on a 17x11 wheel.

I run 1.30's 60ft on MT's recommended 9 1/2"x 17 wheel with that tire.Even at 2000' your car should easily run in the 10's.If it dosen't I would set it on fire if I were you

Haha that's what I was thinking as well, set the bastard on fire. But, I'm going to have to wait since LS fest just got cancelled....
Thanks for the Input man!
