Track times from 6/11 I went to the track this weekend. I was hoping to run close to my personal best of 13.096 @ 107mph. It was very warm & Humid outside. My only additional mod since my PB was a Cutout. I also lowered my tire pressure on my 235's from 35 to 28 for this night. I was really thinking breaking into the low 13.3's would be tough. Not only this, It was a special grudge match agaist a buddy. He has a 96 LT4 Vette 6spd with some aftermarket exhaust, free mods, air foil, Nittos, Centerforce clutch. Well, to hurry this up, he ended up beating me by .05 and the next race by .2 
My times were not close to what I thought I would be able to do. As the night went on it did start to cool but not enough. Here were my times.

Avg Temp: 80, Dew pt:71, Avg Hum: 74
My last time out for my personal Bests it was Average temp:50, Dep pt: 26, Avg Hum:38. I wouldn't have thought the temp would make that big of a difference. I didn't bring my cap for my cutout. It has been uncapped for almost two weeks if that makes a difference. Could the cutout have hurt me that much?
I don't know if any of you look at your "split times." Runs 12-15 were this past weekend. The other three were from my PB night.

hey man, looks like traction was there for the most part it was just too hot and humid. i figured friday would be a bad day to go out there. end of the season when those temps get lower is the best time to go. also if anything your cutout shouldnt do anything but help you. your car has 12s in it im sure, you will get it
