Default My 1/4 times at PMI

Before people start saying that my time isn't very respectable, I challenge you to take your 350z to Colorado elevation and see what time you get.

Hey Nice time. I used to live in Utah (5200 ft elevation) and I know what you're talking about. I'll bet down here in TX it would be much quicker. Is it still stock?

No, I am not stock. Using the NHRA correction values, I should be pulling a 13.6 at sea level.

FINALLY, someone who understands my pain Our track is at ~5400 feet of elevation, and not in the best of conditions. My best time up here has been a 14.79s run (13.79s with the NHRA correction estimate factor) I am completely stock. What do you have done to your car?

Elevation stinks. When you think of how much money we spend to go a full second faster in the quarter mile it's a ***** that your location already has you behind the 8-ball. I'm afraid if I lived at a high elevation I'd have to go FI.

In a heartbeat! I would FI the Z28 without a doubt if I was any higher than my already high 2100ft.
