OK, the trend is pretty is heavy on the "post it" side, so i'll cut to the chase
First, I did attend the America vs The World event at Capitol on Sunday. YT 'stang guy was there, but said he'd been so busy with setting up the event and a new job he's starting that he didn't manage to get new wheels & drag radials for it in time.
The car's previous best was an 11.83; at the first March test session at Capitol it was running very close to that with back-to-back 11.85s. For whatever reason(s), the next day at MIR it was down about a tenth.

Last Friday I pulled passenger & rear seats, swapped to XS Power lightweight battery, switched to a Hellcat lower air box w/ AFE intake tube, went back to a K&N drop-in filter from a Mahle Hellcat paper filter, and swapped the 2-year old ET Street S/S 305/40R18 for new ET Street R 305/45R18.
Saturday was an open test & tune run in conjunction with a small-tire race. Air quality was very good, but it was very windy where sometimes it was cross winds and sometimes definite head winds. Given it dipped into the 11.6x and ran a couple low 11.7x, looks like it picked up a least a tenth overall, plus the ET Street Rs are working better than the old S/S.
Sunday was the America vs The World where there were open time runs, then two qualifying runs (I was signed up for the 11.00 - 11.99 class), and then eliminations. My first two open session passes were heat-soaked and way off the pace (11.88 and 11.97) as I watched the IATs hit 130 and 136 on those runs. That's why I made a point of being first in the lanes for my time trials and elimination round. Problem is I can't always be the first one there, nor can I control the heat when they start hot-lapping the rounds as the fields get smaller.

Car ran better than expected in qualifying since I saw how much the DA had climbed vs Saturday. I was paired against a BMW M-series car that was running 11.0s in the first round of eliminations, but even an .082 light vs his .288 wasn't enough to offset his performance advantage.

Strictly for the factor, this Demon 170 in the same color as my 1320 was in line ahead of me waiting for the gates to open

at Idle my IAT get 115-120, but as soon as I get on it they drop to 3 to 5 deg more than ambient, the T/A has a true cold air set up , open top box that seals to the hood scoop, then the left headlight gets air also, Thanks for the update, YES post everything about our late model stuff

How much weight savings for the seats and battery? I didn't weigh it all, but feel safe in saying ~ 130 lbs, give or take

Yeah, that's Chris Ulanowicz(?) out of Texas. I met him at MIR's Modern Street Hemi Shootout back in 2022. He's also the guy who turned me onto the XS Power lightweight battery swap.
