Default DA Question

How much ET can I shave off with a good DA? I ran a 13.2 with a 2400' DA. Could I break 12's with a -200 DA or is that a little too ambitious?

No doubt about it. 12.8-12.9 is my guess.

I'm assuming the same 60ft time.

2600' is ALOT of altitude!

Good guess! <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

I didn't quite hit the 12.8-12.9 mark. I was close though. Just like you said, I would've broke 12's with a "good" 60'. Here are my times:
