Used to be 11.99.The Vette & Viper pushed it down to 11.50 for a roll bar,9.99 requires a cage with halo and window net.Also a full faced helmet ,gloves,shoes,neckbrace and multi layer firesuit.


I thought it was still 11.50 for a roll bar but it sounds like they changed it to 10.99 this year ?
If you went in the low 120's in mph you are right there for a 10 second pass if the car 60's real good. When I was first jetting my car up to dail it in I ran 10.90's at 121 mph. My best 60 is a 1.50 on just SS springs and not it runs 123 to 124 in the 10.80's and 10.70's. It sounds like you dont need much more power to push the 10's. I dont know if you posted your 60 ft times or I missed them. Ron
 
Man I hope your right . Can't find the 11.22 slip but it was in 60 degree weather . I do have my most recent slip :
In 90 degree very humid weather it went
11.50
119mph
1.69 60'

Yea the 1.69 sixty ft is not to good for that et. When I ran my old 440 I ran 11.49 at 116 with a 1.57 sixty. And I only run SS springs with the C-body longer shocks. I have seen cars at 119 run 11.0's to 11.20's. I would definetly work on your 60 ft as you should be able to sixty in the mid 1.50's I would think with good working suspension. Then a little weight off or a tad more hp should get you that 10 ! Good luck , Ron
 
Aluminum master cylinder, aluminum heads
After market front brakes (I'm guessing you have factory disc?)
If power steering remove and install manual steering
The aluminum wheels will certainly help
 
All good stuff, I want to leave my ps & pb because it's such a pleasure on the street. I'm also trying to wrap my head around new front brakes after I basically just rebuilt/ replaced my stock. . Probably will wind up doing them thou

Also a NHRA license for 9.99 and quicker.
And a parachute for over 150 mph...
 
My Arrow only went 147 so I never put the chute on. LOL But the Lamb brakes sure stopped just fine.
