Too cold to hook up. Rubber would be like ice...slick, hard with these temps.

In those temps I'd probably hit the wall.

Don't you almost do that in optimum conditions? Just kiddin, your car is an absolute amazement to me....stopped by your trailer at the Gators but could tell you were in no mood for light conversation....saw later why that was. Would love to see you run 7.80's.

I opened myself up for that one….haha. It usually doesn't almost hit the wall, but it's a normal occasion that I use a good portion of the track. Kind of comes with the territory of a 26x10" tire, 94.5" wheelbase, 1200hp car.

Thanks, unfortunately the Gators turned into just a test session for us, so we were all kind of in a bad mood that race as it's not how we wanted to start out the season. Usually we are all very approachable, so you definitely caught us at a bad time.

Cary. Are you coming to play this year? I'll be there as long as I can get my trans together.

Just downloaded a density altitude calc. Nice!
corrected alt. here in Paulsoboro, NJ just across from Philly airport,
-2,585'!!! DA
30.64"Hg
32'F
10.4 dewpoint
36' elevation

Probably similar to a day at Atco back in 2002 when the engine that I built ran 11.77 in J/SA! Many many records were set that same day in Delmar!!! By comparison, the B&B Machine built engine ran 11.45 in "Lee's bracket mode" on a "just good" day at Atco.

I don't think so Art. Not sure how much NHRA racing I'm going to do this year. Not very appealing anymore.
