the radix god. 
I am very impressed with your times, but mostly with that launch you pulled off. With the 26X11.5 ET streets I was using, the best I could muster with them spinning was 2.03 60ft. You have now given me motivation to make my truck faster, thanks for making me spend more money
. Now quit guessing and go get that thing dynoed.

I've always used the calculators at www.smokemup.com. Using 4550 lbs, 110mph and 20% drivetrain loss, I got the following:
You Entered:
Vehicle Weight - 4550 (lbs)
Trap Speed - 110.79 (mph)
Drivetrain Loss - 20 (%)
Results:
Rear Wheel HP - 420.1
Crankshaft HP - 525.1
Power to Weight (rwhp) - 10.8 (lower is better)
Power to Weight (crank hp) - 8.7 (lower is better)
You Entered:
Vehicle Weight - 4550 (lbs)
Trap Speed - 110.79 (mph)
Drivetrain Loss - 20 (%)

So .. the numbers I came up with were a little optimistic. 
I just tried the first 3 or so on the search.
I'm thinking hard about making another trip during the day when the track's a little more predictable and see if I CAN back it up or even better it. I'm tempted to run more boost.
I may wait til after I get alternative transportation though .... just in case.
