is it "common" to post corrected timeslips? i say no. if you dont like the DA where you race, find a different place.

 

Post a link to the thread. That Magnum guy should post something like this:

13.9@100mph (4000 DA)
13.1@>>>> (corrected)

Posting a corrected number only, especially that is like 8 tenths, is too much.

 

i agree john. im not gonna post that link here because i dont want to start a war. i may post this over there to enlighten some people. if i race in negative DA do i have to add time to my et?

 

I post my actual numbers with the DA, but sometimes i'll post the corrected numbers too for comparsion since I live in high DA land.. lol

 

real numbers

 

Come on, Post the link!!! Finally a mod. that will make my car faster without costing anything. Does it give mph? I'm shooting for 120mph++

 

If it ain't on the clock and timeslip, you didn't run it.

 

Judgment for the plaintiff!

I say calculated #s are a BS excuse. The only exception might be a really high area like Colorado or such, but I still post up what I RUN, not what I could have in perfect DA air.

Exactly! Otherwise it leaves the door open for other "what if" scenarios. You ran that number, period, now deal with it ... no excuses.

 

Agreed!
It's the numbers on the slip that= bragging rights, not the "if's"

Shoot, as long as my slip says "Winner" I'm happy

 

Amen!!

15 votes and either people are afraid to vote for the correction factor, or everyone is in agreement.

Want to hit on something folks just can't quit from doing? The statements of "I could have run a _______ if..."

I think if you've ran a number before, it's one thing to say you may have done it again. But if you want to pencil whip the timeslip into wishing a new best...

 

I race at 8000ft DAs...sadly...

i wont break any "milestones" here.. but every time i say what my car runs i say "Blah @ blah DA"

my corrected times always look too good to be true...

 

At 8000' my car would want to walk to finish line instead of running...huffin 'n puffin

 

that's not the horrible thing..

the horrible thing is having to keep up with turbo 4cyls...

 

I think I just threw up a little

 

It's just so fun when members cry about their HIGH DAs of 1000

 

Yep, 3500 DA in FL summers looks like nothing now....

 

Real numbers are what counts. Shoulda, woulda, coulda.........but you didn't.

 

3500 FT DA is a pretty good day here in West Texas.. lol
