We are very lucky in the middle east (Bahrain) we are 7 ft / 2 m of Elevation ,the only draw back is the HEAT and humidity .
I ran 13.4 stock and the same with full bolt-on's, both runs with street rubber .

stock I ran 14.2@101 or something like that.
As I sit now, 13.2@106. Didn't have a chance to tune the car becaue the laptop decided to take a sh*t on me. I would expect 107-108 trap speeds in "good" weather. Guess we'll see come Oct.-Nov.
Track is 5350ft, and DA can reach 9000 ft in the middle of summer.

I ran a 12.86 at 107.X (best trap is 109) with over 7000ft DA in Abq. It does suck, but look at the bright side, you dont break stuff up here either cause you run so slow!!!

Times and DA in sig, I ran a 14.21 @ 102 with just a lid a couple years back
The DA in my sig is a pretty decent DA for us.. right now at 7:15 pm it is 5900 ft DA where I race (actual elev. is 3000 ft).

I ran a 13.9@101mph bone stock. And a 12.5 with mods in sig and 4.10 gears last week. I need bigger tires though. I couldn't get the car to hook up. I'm in El Paso, Texas. Not positive on elevation but it's around 3800ft.
Peace
