A piece of 2X2 hose clamped under the pedal works very well, too.

Guessing the car is an auto with a manual valve body. Try starting the car in second instead if 1st. If you have a lower stall converter try swapping that. I lost about 4 tenths going that route.

Add weight
Adjust throttle cable so it doesn't get full throttle
Disconnect secondaries
I personally use a The ET Genie which is an adjustable restrictor plate.

Imo......
All the tuning suggestions will slow the car a bit, here and there. But the o.p. wants to slow the car from low 10s (10.20 or so?) to 10.90.
I would figure out how to make the stop the o.p. has, in post#9, work. Most consistent, easiest way to kill a substantial amount of time without altering much else. Just keep an eye on the tune and exhaust temps as GTX John says.
Probably easier than adding 500-700 lbs.
