Thumbs up 11's..the easy way

...let's face it. We all have one goal on the track, to run as quck as we can, and safely.
I would like to say that 11's were possible for me yesterday without spending a ton of money...only to be dissapointed of the results. I have been around so long that I have seen so many spend thousands of dollars, only for "not what I expected" ET's.
I am proud to say that my runs were made with the use of:

JL Ram-air
JL Air-kit
ASP upper pulley
Level 10 shift kit
Bassani cat pipes, and cat-back, stock manifolds
3.73's
MT ET DRAGS 26x10x16 (worn out after yesterday) LOL
And this is with the stock meter,TB,Heads,block,convertor...LOL you get the idea. And of course, a 100 shot from my Nitrous kit. And most important is the PSP programming for Nitrous...Simply the best availabe..PERIOD!!

Thanks to George and Harvey for coming down. And even coming a little further south for some food and beer .

So..there it is, finally 11's for me!! Thank you to all.

[b][i]It just shows with the right tuning,Nitrous CAN WORK

Slowest run of the day with a 75 shot of nitrous:

12.25 @ 113.09 with a 60' of 1.81

Fastest run of the day with a 100 shot:

11.945 @ 115.31 with a 60' of 1.72


------------------

12.373 @ 110.15
Best 60' 1.76
@ 4700 without the Go-Go juice

11.94 @ 115.31 with the Go-Go juice @ 4700 lbs.

Thanks BBQMAN

Im surprised at the replies on this...LOL I figure people would joke about the "cheap horsepower" found in a nitrous bottle, but nothing....

Hi Spiro
There are probably some folks out here in lightning land who have just barely cracked the 12.90s on the bottle. So your 11.90s are nothing to joke about. Nice runs!!!

That is awesome. I'm really glad to see someone use an intelligent mix of mods and tuning, without spending thousands of dollars, to make this truck fly. Great job!!!
