don't know what to think?? temp in the 80's 100% humidity(they closed the track early because of fog)
The best I could muster was:
RT : .113
60' 1.88
330' 5.186
1/8 7.864 @92.03
990 10.080
1/4 12.03 @ 119.85
I thought I'd at least be in the elevens??

100 percent humidy with 80 degree weather would have hte potential to slow the car down as much as a half a second.
just being on thes safe side of estimation, you would have gone at least 11.80's at 121 or so even on that same 1.88 sixty foot if the weather was more ideal.

I feel for you. I have been fighting electrical gremlins and not had good weather. The best I have done this year in in my sig. I think I found the electrical problems. The shop that did the H/C package did not reattach the O2 grounds or the block ground on the driver's side head.
Looking for better weather and better times.

the weather was bad that night. i feel that the weather had much effect on our timeslips. it was humid as a bastard! 
hopefully next time we can catch a good cool day at the track! And i thought we were just making excuses that we couldnt get a better time, but im glad to see you guys agree!
