Converter slip problem?

I believe I have a converter slip problem. I keep calculating between 22-26% slip. Is this right? What am I leaving on the table?

26" hoosier QTP
7.53 et 1/8th mile
going through the traps at 5800 rpm @92 mph

Any help would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Austin

Posted this over in the drag racing section too. Just trying to get this thing figured out!

your 1/8 mile slip will be much higher than your 1/4 mile.
