Thanks everyone! Didn't really get any good pictures. There was some video taken - here is me in the final round - it was a 9.63 though, not the 9.55 (don't think they caught that one)

Thanks everyone! By the time that final in the video had come around, the track was totally gone and I had to progress to 100 hp hit off the line to get the car moving - one huge advantage of a good nitrous setup over a supercharger

Its a Coan TH400 off the footbrake and a tight *** ATI converter. ATI went a bit too tight and now that I have run it on the 250 shot out of the hole, I think I will get it restalled some next time I take a week off from racing.

Congrats! But a big supercharger on a small engine (348ci) works too.
