Default Fastest Chevy 8-Lug in the Country (Gasser)?

What would you have to run to make that claim? According to Moregrips 8-lug FTL, the fastest gas powered Chevy 8-lug on this sight is 12.2 (BLK6.0HD). Do you know of or have you seen any quicker times excluding diesels?

I've run 11.9 in mine and should be closer to 11.5 now with my new cam and some weight reduction I have done. Im sure there are Chevy 8-lugs out there plenty faster than me though. What times have you seen or heard of? What would it take to claim to be the fastest gas powered, Chevy 8-lug truck in the country?

There are many faster than that. Unfortunately that list has not been maintained and updated.

I know guys that run mid-high 10s in their daily driven Duramaxs. There's also a few Cummins in the 9s (or so I've been told) that still use their trucks as trucks.
