Default 9.6's n/a 2300+ DA

I wouldnt normally post how my car does when air gets really warm nor does many others because its usually nothin to get excited about. But I cant help but be happy with how it did.Had a event today called "Pontiacs in the park" at Virginia Motorsports Park ... Air was terrible today but car suprised me to say the least...... 88* 58% humidity baro 29.92 ...wator vapor was 89.3%per gram (YUCK) crosswind ,track wasnt there and let me see... DA was anywhere from 2200+ to 2500+ all day
1.365 60 ft. (blah) footbrake
6.11@111.8 actual DA 2149
9.65@138.09

also went a
1.368 60 ft. (blah blah) footbrake
6.13@111.2 actual DA 2314
9.68@137.78

couldnt run quick 16 since they only allowed 'Pontiac" engines ,,,I could be mistaken, but I dont remember that option when i bought the car ..Maybe it should have been named 1st-2nd gen pontiacs in the park *rant*
anyway guess there wont be many more good days left.. this sure wont one of em ..but if anything it was a good test for how it will do in the heat I just hope my math is right, figuring what it would have ran if everything was ideal ...
