Thanks Lane, that's what I thought it was too, and with my best run in the summer months (with heat and headwinds being intangibles there), being that 16.664 I ran in the 3rd rnd of the '06 Mile High's, I now know it would be pointless for me to enter that race again unless/until I can free up $5k to have headers custom made for my car, and get my engine redone with a better durationed cam....it's all about the money, or lack thereof...

More reason for me to be glad for RMR, & SIR embracing the IHRA, since at 4400ft, I was .35 under in not-so-ideal weather conditions, and that was even with their indexes using the Super Comp/Gas/Street correction factor...now that's something to about!
