^ nice find those #'s look close to what you would run (in my case). I'm #1609.

I remember running a 9.2 1/8th when I was N/A and my 1/4 was 14.1.

Thats not bad with your mods. Getting off the line is going to make a HUGE difference in your ET. Keep in mind that the reaction time has no effect on your ET. For example, whether you had a .00 or a 1.9 sec reaction time you still would have run a 9.44: Time doesnt start ticking until you leave the line.
