So I went to the drag strip yesterday to try and get a new PB because it was about 30 degrees cooler than when I ran my current best. A few months ago I managed a 11.30 at 119.5mph on a 1.56 60'.

This time out I found out that my 10 bolt has just had enough and my posi was completly shot. The best pass I could muster was an 11.59 at 121.1mph on a terrible 1.85 60' but I did pick up some good mph and I was curious as to wether or not you guys though I would have been able to hit 10s? The car is done for the year and I will be saving for a 9" with some 3.73s (currently has a bone stock 10 bolt with 3.23) and that should for sure get me there but I was curious as to what I may have been able to run if I could cut my usual 1.5 60's.

At 3700lbs you need 122/123 mph to run a 10.90, or I did anyway.

You also need a low 1.50 60 foot

That is my goal, the car will be cutting 1.4X next year for sure so we will see. If not I can always get a UDP or at the worst case senario go to a FAST inatake.
