As long as you preload the transmission before every pass, you can reliably race in the 11s. The 10s are pushing it. Depends on power and driving technique. A solid upgrade is getting a Z32 transmission and running a mazworx adapter kit (or something similar). These are immensely strong and can run well into the 9 with no issues.
