I'll have to check the EXiF information in the photo, but I would guess around 8:30 PM. And the photo is 1:30 long ... not 30 seconds ... but it's still haulin'!
I can report that the asteroid was absolutely dead center in photos that I took right after slewing the mount with SkySafari ... so I think their calculations were spot on!
