last time at the track i ran 13.60 @ 103.4 w/ 2.099 60'
weather was
60F
52Hum
30.24 bar.
i race in ks at an altitude of 1300 asl
im just trying to figure out why my car is a slow turd cause it seems like everyone else with similar mods is in the low 13's high 12's

so what are you guys runnin and what conditions and altitude

 

Atco Raceway - 93 ft.

 

What she said. I love that track.

 

NPR is sitting at 15 feet.

 

Up here it's Bandimere, 5800 ft!

 

Anywhere I travel to is lower than my local track.

Track elevation 3350
Typical race day density altitude 5000+

 

I think it's about 850ft, but the density altitiude is seldom less than ~1,800ft. One day two years ago it was like 400ft, there were lots of new bests (and lots of broken cars).

4400ft with a normal DA between 7K-11K.

Welcome to the slowest NHRA track in the country.

 

Ouch. Get into the 12's there though you could only imagine what would happen at sea level.

 

Rockingham is around 375 ft with a normal DA of 1000. Now my little 1/8 track I race at here on the coast is 50 ft and I have seen the DA as low as -650, that's good air.

11,000 d.a.? Are you sure? I race at 4000' elevation and the highest I have ever heard of was about 7000' d.a. on a 100 degree summer day. I've had my car up to 8900' elevation and it was dog d!ck slow. It has never been even close that slow at 4000' ever.

 

Last year we had a couple of really bad days when the DA hit 7000 feet. I just wanted to go home and lie in the sun. It was too hot and muggy to race especially when you're in a fire jacket sitting in a black car in the staging lanes waiting for a track cleanup.

 

Absolutely positive....I work for RMR.

 

You're telling me.....N/A sucks up here. Old setup was running 13.2 on street tires. We'll see how the FI treats me.

 

Gateway International Raceway = 400 ft.
Mid America Raceway = 515 ft.

DA's normally around 1000.
