Default "Entry level blower" goes 10's!

I went out to the track today for a shot at the cool weather, and my boss got his Windsor car together so we were making some shakedown passes with his new motor.
I put on a new belt, then lined up. I launched decent, but noticed only 5psi on the gauge, and then the boost started to fall off. I let off early and ran 11.4@112.
The belt stretched, so I re-tightened it, and got back in line. I get up to the line and the starting line guy asks me how fast my last pass was. I said 11.4. He then said "make one more 11 second pass, and you're outta here"
I say "O.K."
I leave decent again with just enough wheelspin to keep the engine from bogging, and run cleanly right to the end, showing 8 psi all the way.
I go to the ET shack, and they won't give me my slip, and said they can't give it to me.
REAL NICE!!!!!
A light bulb turned on over my head, and I asked the guy I ran against if they still printed it on his slip. They did.

10.98@128!!!!!!!

I am finally in the club.
