I might go a head and see how fast I can get down with a converter, but that's about it. I also don't want to mess up my car by removing stuff just to make it lighter. I also don't want to run drag wheels (I'm too lazy). I like to drive to the track run my car and drive home.

But if I did go with drag wheels (17'' for example), gears, converter, and weight reduction, I know I could run mid 11s (probably faster given the right conditions).

I think as the cars get older and people start getting a little more aggressive with their mods, the times will come down. But right now pretty much all the bolt on cars are nice new daily drivers that guys don't want to mess up.

Not sure why this even needs explaining to some....especially the 4th gen crowd lol.
