I'd say mid 9's at best unless the 300 shot is added onto the 728rwhp

I would say at your raceweight it should get in the very low 9's maybe 8.80 if it 60fts very well

That is an extraordinary ET for that MPH, but if that is your normal times, I think a 300 shot will deliver a 8.98@150 if everything is right.
