The last time i went out to the track i ran a 14.1 in my auto with a 2.3 60ft on a un prepped track i'm sure in this type of weather i would hit 13,s no wonder some of you guys are in the 13,s. Here in austin on a hot day you will be lucky to hit low 14,s its like a 100 degress out just about every day usually.

If you think your car is slow out there in Texas , try Vegas with no humidity , crappy air quality and in the summer 120 degree heat. I head down to the cali coast and it feels like i added 30+ hp, and i get 5 MPg better.
