Our buddy in a new Shelby Cobra trapped 125mph at Infineon Raceway 1 week and trapped 125mph at Sacramento Raceway the very next week.

Sac Raceway is open for all to come and race. Please come out and find out for yourself!!!

Yeah, 102, but you ran a 13.0 with only a 1.8 60'. We all know that's not possible, so your trap was obviously not accurate due to whatever reasons that haven't been divulged. To run 13.0 with a 1.8 60', it would require ~106mph trap with the same driving indicated on your 12.14@114.3. SAC is extremely fast, bottom line. Nothing wrong with that, but any time the DA is below 0, cars are going to be faster than anywhere else. It's just a fact of life.

Not sure why you'd get haughty and tell people to drive across the country. Try to be reasonable. If you think you're special, you can drive to Denver and see how much slower your car is if you'd like...

getting haughty huh?

Your right, having a negative DA will improve horsepower and track times. It's not Sacramento raceway's fault or mine for having some really good DA's lately.

Here are my "impossible" time slips. I included the BONE stock 13.0@102mph slip and just 2 of the 12.1@114mph slips.

i'm looking forward to the night test and tunes here in March. Florida is pretty good for negative DAs this time of year at night.

I'm been drag racing at Sac raceway for the past 10 years... I can honestly say that it is one of the worse prepped tracks on the West Coast.

Only the first 100 ft or so actually has VHT.

I have friends who have traveled to the East Coast to race in the NHRA sport compact series, and they all agree that the tracks are way better prepped on the East Coast.

Racing at Sac despite having a low DA really isn't that much of an advantage if any.
