I'm going to LACR tonight....horrible track even slower and higher elevation than Cali Speedway...I'm hoping for a 12.5...at that track that would be awesome....

A better 60' just means you're getting there quicker...not shifting in less distance. Your trap speed will determine when you have to shift into 5th. If your trap speed goes up a little due to better weather then you might have to shift into fifth, but with a better 60' you typically won't trap any higher.

I have a question..Does your local strip have a slope/downhill? It looks like it on the video.
