Better but still cant break 9 sec

Raced at Barona today. I think temp and elevation played a factor. It was 95 and the elevation is 1600'. At 1600' that is about a loose of 15-16 hp. Here is my best run

R/T .943
60' 2.158
1/8 mile 9.328
MPH 77.304

The BFG KDWs seemed to hook better than the Nitto 450 extremes

Not bad. Maybe work on those 60ft's a bit more and you'll lose another tenth or two.

I cut 2.04 60ft's when I drop the goodyear skatrbacks down to 15psi. If I have anymore air than that, I just spin all day.

aww i thought you were trying to run 9's in the 1/4! damn deceptive thread titles.

My 60' times are improving. Last time at the track my 60' times were 2.4 to 2.6 range. Today there were in the 2.158 to 2.444 range.

My corrected sea level time may be better than I thought. The density altitude at the strip yesterday was around 4300' my actual time would have been around 8.834. 9.328 x.9471 (alt. correction factor)
