I have one on my WRX.. It seems to be about 3-5 tenths faster than my timeslips... I re-programmed it and had the same results... Maybe the sky is blue cause I just like that color?!

Ive got a quick question. I here everyone who goes to the track all decribe completely different weather codnitions and claim that the weather was always not as good as it should've been. How can it be ****ty when its hot in the carribean and ****ty in newengland when its cold and ****ty in florida with 70-80s.

My question is what exactly is the "perfect" drag strip weather cause it seems like the only place is sub 0C in scandanavia where Jocce runs 10s ???

i'm not sayin a 'perfect' drag strip wheather, but if there is less humidity and the whether at 40 degrees, you'll run better than you would humid and 80 degrees...

also, my last remark was i suck at driving... so that counts for acount .1's of a second

Sounds close, BUT you don't want it too cold because you won't be able to hook up... also if the track has been prepped is another factor.
