In the 8's!!!!!!!!!
Nicely done, Congrats !!!!
Did you have to pedal it a little bit after the launch? It looked like the car got a little loose and resettled.
What did you trap on that run, it looked like 161 ???
Did you notice any water in the overflow, or are the new gaskets hanging in there?

That ****** is scootin for sure! 
Very nicely done man 
Hope those LS9 gaskets are still doin their job. If so, I'm convinced to use them on my current 370 build up!

Thanks for all the support guys. I credit this forum for helping me get to where I am at.
So we were a bit too fast for the show, they picked a 10 second class. And 64 at that. 4 wide is crazy to watch!
Todays first pass was junk, it was my fault, second pass was another low 9.
I will try to answer as many questions as I can....
I still have not weighed the car yet, sometime soon. I will guess between 3400-3500
Fuel was E85, the best pass was 17 psi of boost.
We did have some issues, last night at the 8 second pass, the car was real lazy when I shifted into third, and rpm's wouldn't climb past 5900. And it overheated by the time I made it back to the pits. Today it pushed some water again, and something was not 100% with the motor. The data logs didn't really show anything out of whack, but I will pull the headers and look at the plugs and perform a leak down and compression test first.
The gaskets are not the issue, the LS9's work great.
I pulled the chute today for the first time, that was pretty cool!
Here is a real crappy video, but you can see Rich.

oh and what gears are you running? I'm looking to run a really nice 3.00 gear and 28.00 tires , great rpm on the street, and can leave on alot of boost, what rpm are you crossing the traps at?

If you pushed water, you lifted the head's.This is why you overheated on the way back. You will need to change out your head gasket's.No since on doing a compression check until you do that.

Right now the exhaust is a 5" DP that dumps just past the passenger fender, it is fairly quiet.
