I'll be taking my car to the track next year hoping for mid to low 11s. Just wondering what times I should expect. This an overview of my mods that I'll have:

Nitrous Express 150-200hp shot of w/dedicated fuel system (will try both)
Forged 376ci ls3 w/stock crank
Headers cat delete and npp exhaust
Nitto 555r 20" drag radials
Spec stage 3+ clutch and flywheel
Bmr lowering Springs /trailing arms
Fastlane intake
Livernois motorsports stage 3 heads
Livernois motorsports cam
Stock driveline /axles
Manual

Also Do you guy's have any advice as to how to run the car on the 1/4 as far as launching? And yes I do realize I need axles and maybe a diff but I'm on a limited budget for next year and need some help on how to set the car up/run as is. Thanks

It's all in the 60ft. Mid-low 11s will be a piece of cake even on street tires. Those are really low expectations lol. You could do mid-low 11s on motor... With nitrous you should be low 10s easy if you can get a good enough 60ft without braking your rear end. But 60ft is key. When using the nitrous if you don't have drag radials it's a waste of time and n2o to try using it from a dig IMO.

I trap mid-120s so even I have the trap speed to touch 10.9x and I'm on a stock motor. I just need tires and a good enough sixty. With all your mods and a 200 shot you should be trapping high 130s easy.

Yeah that's the trick not breaking my rear end lol. I'm on 20" 555r radials now but I'm going to take it easy out of the hole and probably not do much of a burnout to save my rear end. That would be nice if I could get some times like that! What were you getting for e/t and 60ft?
