Oh you went to the racing on the 12th, ok I went on the 13th, that's why I didn't see you. Still Cal Speedway is not 4000 feet in elevation, who ever told you that, told you wrong. Anyways very good time.

it's 1700 feet and if you add air density, humidity and all that crab it brings you up to about 4000 supposedly...I was always told it's 2200 but I keep on getting corrected here and told it's 4000...at 2200 converted to sea level my 12.254 would have been a 11.9...
Bottomline is Cali Speedway is known to be notoriously slow with strong head winds, so I am more than happy especially since that was my first time with the twins
I was there on Friday for the Privates, only 80 cars allowed and lots of runs, much better than the crowded Saturdays. We were three turboed z's all hitting 12's even though I was the fastest
I have videos, time slips and photos in case you don't believe me (videos are posted in seperate thread and here's a link of me beating Igottaz

The Z traps high enough for 13's, a large percentage just need some pointers and practice.
BTW, if you don't hit 11's with 430RWHP, I will be disappointed.
I am about to do my first mod, so no more stock runs for me either. Woohoo, JWT pop charger, should be good for .005 seconds.
I am still trying to decide on an exhuast, but it looks like Borla, or custom will get the nod.

I think its like 600' above sea level, but still better than and 1/8th mile at SL, or a 1/4 at 2700'. Lemme know how you do.

in general everything below 1000 feet is still considered sea level, in any case it's the closest to sea level we got here in southern cali ever since they demolished Carlsbad (the dragway not the city... )

2.10 is a pretty decent 60' for street tires..the the best...but not BAD by a long shot.
