While I'm not a C5 guy, I know of a few examples of boosted C5s in my stomping grounds. They're pretty quick.

I can get into the 9's on a test & tune night. On a legal night I have to
hold it to the 10's.

Any car running single digit ETs is a plenty fast car. I've run a few low 10's...but never a 9 anything.

9 territory takes a lot of safety equipent. The best/worst is the safety chute.
The rest I have. A 10 sec car is good for non professionals.

I'm a little curious, What rear ratio and tires are you running to get you in the 9's?
