Bolton only 1/8 7.27 at 98.7mph
The were only running the 1/8 mile because of cross winds... We had some good air, so I thought I would run... I was asked to slow down or leave, so I left... I guess this equals an 11.2 or 11.3ish in the 1/4

Thanks Dennis.... Soon as the wind calms down around here, I'll move up on the 1/4 mile list... If they didn't shut down, this pass had a shot at low 11s...
The guy that hands out the slips came up to me and says... You need a fire jacket.. then the lady says, he doesn't even have a roll bar... I was laughing.. I was like, I don't even have a cam in this car.. He said, "yeah those Vettes can hook up sometimes".. I asked him if I had to leave ... he said just slow it down. I was hoping the wind would slow down so they would open up the 1/4.. I was planning on getting booted after one clean 1/4 pass

That some good running and mph. As Pro Stock John says you have the potential for a 10 second car. My 98 Camaro ran 98.96 mph and a 6.837 1/8 et. But with a 1.473 60'. That converts to a 10.842 @ 122.17 mph 1/4 mile.
Probably a looser converter would do it or did you have a traction problem? But if it's a street car there is a trade off when it comes to loose converters.
