After 3+yrs I FINALLY did it!!! 11's N/A
On the stock longblock.
What a relief. The day started off with me freaking out about the track prep since my 60ft on my first pass was 1.85.
Then flustered with that and having to wait in line for quite a long time for someone breaking my 2nd pass I had the car in neutral on the launch. 
So went back to the truck to cool down myself and not the car. Once I was cool I got back in the staging lanes.... Lowered the tire pressure some and busted out a........
R/T- .147
60'- 1.57 (6500rpm launch)
1/8- 7.583
mph- 89.99
1/4- 11.91
mph- 113.15
It felt like a good pass but not a 11.90 pass. When I got my slip I screamed like a little giddy school girl getting her first period. 
So got back to the pits hugged/kissed my wifey and hugged Little Dave, Jomar and thanked Al. Got back in the car to make another pass to see if it was a fluke and went....
R/T- .263
60ft- 1.61 (tried the right lane; 6400rpm launch)
1/8- 7.589
mph- 90.44
1/4- 11.90
mph- 113.69
Holy crap! I did it again. It's not a fluke. Got back to the pits and grabbed some food (now I can eat since I ran the number
Let the car cool some and got back in the staging lanes. My tire pressure went up since the tires were still kinda hot so right before it was my turn I lowered then down to 10psi and went.....
R/T- .217
60'- 1.56 (6200rpm launch)
1/8- 7.532
mph- 90.51
1/4- 11.84
mph- 113.85
NEW PERSONAL BEST!!!!!!1!!ONE!!! I sure as hell didn't expect the car to run an 11.8X. Jomar was shocked too. So now I'm gonna finally throw on my shortrunner intake (Dave get that runner done please) and shoot for some 11.50's. Thanks to everyone who has encourged me and helped to get here. It's been a long 3+yrs and I finally did it! Man does this feel good!!!!! -Mark
