? about temp vs et's & mph at the track
 
I was just wondering about the effects of high temp against your et & mph at the track. Last sunday i went to race and track temp was at 101. Now this was my 1st time on my new nitto DR's. My best on street tire was 13.09 @ 112.50 at 60 degrees. With the DR's i only ran 12.91 @ 110.55 at 96 degrees. best 60 ft w/street tire 2.1 W/DR's 1.990 {this will be improved on i promise}So my ? is how much do you think that the heat and humitity played on my #'s. thanks for any info

Your performance will vary with temp, humidity and barometeric pressure, e.g., Density altitude.

Weather will effect your times greatly. :nod:

Last weekend at the Bracket Finals in Sheveport La. :cool:

I ran a 7.44 at 10:30am and the temp was 76 degrees. At 1:30pm I ran a 7.53 and the temp was 92 degrees. Temp makes a big difference. ;)

Good luck to ya, :angel:
