A friend of mine with a stock 6th gen runs at our local 1/8th mile strip. He consistently ran 7.8X in his stock Camaro SS A8 with 60' times in the mid to high 1.7X range.
He was coming to the strip as well with stuff inside the car, and over a 1/2 tank of gas. He came with 1/4 tank (each gallon of gas weighs 6 lbs.) and removed all the excess stuff from the inside and the trunk. Every 100 lbs. less will equal a solid tenth. He removed around 40-50lbs total.
We also changed the pressure in his tires, starting at 22 and going down. PSI will go up about 2lbs after a burnout, and 18 psi cold gave him the best 60'.
He was also driving through the water box, and on street tires, this will drag water from the front tires up to the line, which will cause wheel spin. So instead he just drove around it, backed up to the damp (not wet) part, and did the burnout there.
After changing all these things, he ran a 7.74 1/8th which would be 12.0X in the 1/4, this was in 1000 DA air, so in better air, an 11.9X is definitely possible.
Best of luck to you and nice pass.
