I don't keep track of d/a. It was ok, but not what I expected for good times.

Sure I ran yesterday at 12:39 and the postal code was: N0L 2H0, Sparta, Ontario.

Let me know.

just do a search on the track itself on google - it should have a listing of the elevation.

I checked the tracks website and seen nothing. So I e-mailed the track owner and am waiting to hear back.

I don't worry about that stuff because it still won't make me go any faster. I run what I run. Maybe one day I'll worry about it, but not today.

nope, can't find it or a way to look up altitude.

it will make it go faster if you run it in better weather, something I always like to know. just for a point of reference

The weather may have been decent but its the track conditions themselves at Sparta that made me surprised to see such great numbers.

I posted a while back asking the question. What is the fastest N/A six speed and the only backed up or supported time was 10.59 by Jason99T/A. There were a couple "i thought that someone ran" or " I heard that my fathers, freinds, brothers, son" I went by the 10.59.

But anyways, Thanks.

Phillip, I am running a 422 iron block assembled here locally by Harshaw racing engines. With me getting the machine work done and picking all of the parts.

Thanks guys for the support.
