Maybe it was best you didn't run last night. When I got home, I checked the historical weather for the day and it was in the 85-90% humidity range from 7pm on up. The temp was 75-80 degrees till 9:30. I corrected my et to the NHRA correction program. That 15.0@92 I ran corrected out to a 14.5@95mph. Humidity makes more of a difference then I thought.

BTW, I think those Honda and Avenger guys still couldn't believe a 4-door could be so quick.

Yeah, I think I've figured out....for the track atleast. The track was really sticky last night. I'm still spinning too much on the street though. I guess I'll just have to ease into the throttle and launch lower. I was getting to greedy I guess.

You get your new toys yet? Please take that thing to the track and see what she'll run. To hell with that guy that rats you out at the dealership. Just deny it. They can't prove ANYTHING!!!

Yeah, it was really wet last night, tonight too. I was actually thinking about that guy in the 3000GT VR4 today, that guy was so horrible, I wanted to smack him!
