Post I need help getting a 110 mph trap speed!

I just made a friendly but stupid bet with my friend on this board that I can get a trap speed of 110mph in the 1/4 with my car. My car is a 2002 Z28 with the M6 3.42 gears, I have a B&M ripper shifter and a poly transmission mount so I can shift good. I also have some other suspension stuff like SLP subframes, driveshaft loop and strut brace and sway bars but I have the stock 16" rims with stock GSC tires. About the only thing to add more power is the Suncoast creations true z-style ram air hood with an exceptionally large air box with a K&N filter. Do I have a chance of getting 110 mph trap speed, what cheap and quick mods can I do to reach this in one day?

You stand a good chance. I managed a 13.1 @ 110 on Eagle F1's and a 12.90 @ 111 on Nittos before the clutch went haywire. I typically shift into 4th right around or just before the 1000 foot mark. If you shift after that (bad launch will typically push you out farther) then you more than likely won't get it.

Also if you find a track that has the wind at your back, even better. Both of my times were into headwinds.
