My 60 foot times were 2.2-2.3
I ran 14.035, 14.077,14.095,14.122
Every run was between 101-102.2 MPH

I am aware of the fact that the track is at 2200 ft. of elevation.
It was a little windy alhtough temps were in the 60's. One thing I did forget to do was check my tire temps.

Can someone shed some light on perhaps what number i would be running at sea level? Perhaps mid to high 13's?? Maybe it's time for Evosport

You would be running a 13.6 @ 104.7 at sea level. You would be faster if you had better 60' times. When we were at the track doofoo was getting 1.8 60' on Pilot Sport All Seasons.

Yeah the track was prepped pretty well.. No better than usual though. I actually cut a 1.79 60ft as well that day.

Hey Dragon,
We Vegans are a minority on this board!

Here is a link to the drag strip schedule..
http://www.lvms.com/track_info/strip/schedule/

the 6th of May appears to be the next test and tune. You basically have to sign up to be a NHRA member which is $20 at the gate and this is a one time fee. Also there is a $20 fee for every event you attend so $40 for the first visit and $20 every other time you attend. It is well worth it because Midnight Mayhem starts at 10 p.m til 2 a.m although there are hundreds of cars and good luck! Let me know when you are heading out there? I usually go with some friends with pretty cool cars
Roseylv@yahoo.com

p.s. Be forewarned, during Test n tune, if your cars runs in 13.999 or better they require you to wear a helmet. Pretty lame if you ask me. For Midnight Mayhem I think you have to run 11.99 to be forced to where a helmet.

Very cool... I used to run my Civic out there and I remember having to wear a helmet. I should be able to go next Friday. I'll send you an email.

your either comming off the line spinning too much or comming out too soft with that 60ft time.... an appropriate 60ft time would be a 1.9!!!
