oops...forgot to post here...ran a new best over the weekend...8.31 I was fighting various issues all day, but this was the cleanest pass...
1. Car was misfiring over 7500 rpm...I think I found the culprit (one of the plug wires may not have been in good contact with the plug...saw some black-tracking on the terminal) Of course this happend ~7sec into the run...
2. Cooling fan was pushed into the radiator taking out two tubes
3. blowing thru the converter (25% slip downtrack)....I've pulled it out and dropped it off to ATI...tightening it up ALOT
little bouncy on launch...but the front is set dead tight, so not sure how I'm gonna fix that yet....maybe more power on the hit
All-in-all I'm pleased to have run that good with ignition issues

HOLY WEEPING JESUS ON THE CROSS MAN THAT FREAKING CAR IS SICK!!!....ahem, I mean, that is one quality, clean build with incredible parts and some really slick fabrication to go along with it. Nice work and great times posted.
Carry on
