Damn thin air
Damn thin air First time Ive EVER been to the track was tonight. Had a BLAST. However the freakin thin air up here really put a damper on the night. My best was 14.4 @ 100mph. I was consistantly in the upper 14s though.
Anyone have a calculator that can tell me what that would be at sea level?

Using our auto lookup weather correction calculator.
I'm guessing you ran at Bandimere and picked a run time of 9:00 PM. Here are the results.

Woohoo that made my day. Matter of fact it was 8:20 when I ran that time and it was 73* according to Bandimere's sign. Thats freakin awesome!
Thanks for the calculations

I remember a previous thread where you posted dyno numbers on your setup. What interested me was the TEA heads because I have a set of LS6 heads to put on my LS1 in my 02 Z28 and considering having TEA stage 1 ported. Was TEA's porting worth it?

Bandi is a bitch. I think the official baseline NHRA correction for Bandi is about 7% of your ET. Which means for most of us about a full second. Yuck.
Very nice run though. Thats anough to take down a lot of cars in Denver.
