Yes, race weight is with me in the car, and you're on par with what I'm figuring along with the .2. Most of the weight reduction was in the race tire setup. Beech Bend has scales so I'm gonna get a measure next time up. Alabama didn't have scales that I saw.
No added power what so ever. Stock tune for engine, stock trans tune, stock pulleys. The only changes were the race tire/wheels, drive shaft, and rear diff brace to help strengthen the diff and prevent breakage. The rest of the weight reduction was just 15 mins worth of effort like the two 10" Harmon Kardon subs from the trunk (came factory), back seat that pops out etc. Literally like 6 bolts and done for all of it. It's the same setup I ran on Orange Krush so I wanted a legit comparo. This Hellcat smokes my old car, and it's so easy! I had to work and work to find the forumla to get the old car to run 10s.
I'm real happy with a 10.51, but think I can get a 10.4x out of it with some practice. After that, likely a transmission tune and shoot for 9.9x.
