That's also why I'm excited, since my 11.51 was on an evening when it was 97* upon arrival and probably hovering around 90* still when I hit a slew of 11.5s. That's why I'm holding out hope I can do an 11.49 or better when our short summer ends in September.
Yea that's QUICK, Good luck to you, At that Elevation That would be something to brag about Hopefully by the end of summer I will hit 12.5 or better... I know my 60ft sucked but practice makes perfect...I have had the car a month and 2 days today..lol So still feeling it out I guess!

At what track did you run? Elevation does kill. I made 327 whp at reno altitude compared to 387 whp at sea level.
