On Sunday I went out to OSW's Funday Sunday event. Randy also runs the street car shootout at the same time, so track prep is decent (for OSW).
First pass of the day was 11.9 with a 1.99 60 ft. Second pass an hour later was 11.809 @ 121 with a 1.899 60ft. Conditions were around 80-85F with low humidity.
I was running 26.2" tall (stock are 27") BFG DRs on stock wheels with a ton of pressure in them, 20psi. The car actually spun a little in 1st and when shifting into 2nd. With these short tires a shift into 4th is necessary around 110-113MPH, it probably happened between the 1000' and 1320' marks.
I'm happy with the number, though there is a lot more to be had with better air, better driving and slipping the clutch out of the hole more.
