Wow! You broke your own record in the same season! Any chance we can see a picture of the plant it came from? Or has it been pulled now?

And here is the last one for the year at 10.08 which makes my average for all my tomatoes this year at 11.93 lb average tomato weight,6 giants grown and I didn't include the one that was grown in a 20 gallon grow bag which weighed 7.62 lbs.
