Question Went to the track last night

I was on dragtimes the whole time and the d/a wouldn't go below 5000. It was horrible weather and everyone was running slow. Also track prep sucked lastnight. My previous best was a 12.3@109.5 with a 1.7 60ft on 89 octane. I thinke I would have ran a 12.2 with 91? Last night my first pass in the horrible weather was a 12.8@106 with a 1.98 60 ft. I was pretty impressed actually because I spun like a bitch and still pulled a 12.8 in 5000 ft d/a. I think my car was running better because of the 91 octane? My friend said it made a huge difference. My corected time is a 12.04@112. So if I would have had my 1.7 60ft like last time I would be in 11's on a really good day. I guess I will just have to wait tell the end of the year when it cools off

It has been 100 plus every single day over here the past month. Getting up to 113 degrees a cuple days. Most days it's about 107. I can't beleive your complaining about it getting up to 100 lol. It must be much cooler up there than it is here. 98 feels cool over here. And looking at the next 10 day forcast shows everyday still being 100 plus. And it hasn't rained forever.
