I'd be willing to put money on it that the car is faster then 9.36 right now.
If you watch this video again,

You will see that the front left tire does not leave the ground but if you look at this picture,

You can clearly see that the front left tire is at least 6" off the ground which means that the launch was a hell of a lot stronger then the launch in the video. To add to this, in the 9.36 run, the trap speed was 156mph. With that trap speed and a good launch like the picture, nothing else done to the car then what it had in the video and its easily a 9 flat or greater.
oh and Jibbby, where could you ever say that there was anything done with the front suspension.....
As for sleeper, a sleeper is anything that doesn't look fast from the outside but really is significantly faster then what it looks like would then be considered a sleeper.... The problem is that in todays day in age with all the ricer kids and all thier stickers and big wings, anything could be a sleeper...... I'll bet that even with the normal wheels and and good set of what you call a street tire, the car would still run high 9's, low 10's and if you took all the stickers off and the chute, and he drove up next to you in your SC Jibbby, he would blow your doors off and you would have never suspected a thing.... We all know that you would race him to if he pulled up next to you and revved it up cause we all know that you want to race everyone cause you've got "nitrous".
