What tire did you have on there when you ran your 11.96?

It was this 275/60/15 out back with the street lite rims and some heavy 17" chrome bullits up front. The car was also bogging really hard off the line. Im hoping for a mid 11 this year when i get time to figure the suspension out.

I'm fine with that. I have a built motor with HD springs and custom cams. I still make plenty of power past 6k, I just don't like the fender gap that I have with the 275/50s and the eibach pro-kit. When these tires are done, I'll probly go 275/60 and get the fenders rolled.
