i heard that they correct it based on the elevation?

no youre supposed to "correct" it yourself. Elevation is horrible there i remember i went last week and i got 2 runs in then it started sprinkling so they called it quits wasted money and gas

Normally when that happens they give you a ticket to come back for free next time.

It's simple, multipy your E.T. by .97 and your trap mph by 1.03. That is your sea level time. :)

Let me know when you go because I might be interested in going as well. Wednesdays are the best because it isn't crowded.

If you're gonna run with DR's then take your brake fuse out, do a nice 2nd gear burnout to really warm up the tires. Launch high not to bog but always pre-load your drivetrain so you don't shock it and break your diff.

Good luck :)
