Default First time out with the TH400

Well here's my first TNT with the TH400. I got this stuff used with a Neal Chance converter and the converter is NO WHERE near where it needs to be. It's way too tight for my setup BUT I still ran my best

I'm trying to get atleast a 9.9x on the 150shot so here's a breakdown of the slip, it was a dog out of the hole MAJORLY. I've had a 1.43 before on my old 65E.

60'-1.520
330'-4.223
1/8-6.506
1/8 MPH-108.12

I let out at the 1/8th mile
1000ft-8.622
1000ft MPH- 105.76

Anyone think I should get into the 9's if I get the converter right?

I tried the T-Brake twice, but it ran better leaving at 1500 on the footbrake...

Here was a decent pass all the way through the 1000ft.

60'-1.563
330-4.302
1/8-6.599
1/8 MPH-107.82
1000ft-8.570
1000ft MPH- 125.21

Car weighed 3420 without driver and bottle with 1/4 tank of gas. Should weigh 3610 (155lb driver) (33-38lbs full 15lb bottle) with me and all my gear.
