Ok then, now I can figure my time, using the DA calculator and it will read as if I were at your track next to you, right?
So I'll do that and post back, and that'll be the end of it.

Yea I sneezed in my helmet when the lights dropped and got shitty RT too and did a baby launch because I thought there was another one coming.
Still looks faster than yours.

Well, now that the bickering is over.
I suggest you drive cars with stalls, itll give you an idea.
My GFs car has a 224 cam and a Yank SS3600, 3.23 gears.
If you had never driven the car you would never know it had a stall in it.
I bet it would feel even better in a lighter car like a C5.

Ok. I have no idea how you got a 2102 DA looking at that DA calculator, and the date and time on that time slip.
But heres your corrected time at 2102 DA.

And heres my time at 2102 DA, I'm still faster.

Because Firebird raceway is actually 1,243ft and that site lists it as 1,0xx something. Ive sent them an email about that a few times.

I can't believe I read through all of the nonsense this thread contains.

9000th01SS and CoolAid should get married.
