They made a 1-2-3 pass. 9.50. Looks like they are pulling the trans to inspect the SCH and forks? According to FB

Yesterday was a hot one, 104 degrees! We did a 1-2-3 first pass with the new manifold. Second pass took three tries to get into 2nd gear and went 8.9 at 171mph. We've got the trans apart to inspect the cause of difficult engagement and we found the ring gear on the new gearset isn't looking so good. We'll fix what we can today and do what it takes to make it work. Situation normal

KAIZENSPEED is #2 Qualifier so far: 8.89 at 170 mph and lots of spin through 3rd which is not something we're used to
T1 is #1 Qualifier so far 8.73 at 180 mph
