Opinions on effects of DA? What actual effect does track air have on ET and MPH that is quantifiable. For example, if you race with a DA of 0 and then +2000, what is the actual affect in MPH? Same track.

That being said it's safe to say that a 9.14 at BG would be a bit quicker back at Cecil.

Best air at Cecil is in the Fall. I ran a string of high 9.7's last year there in -1200 or so. You will have easy 8 second passes there at that time.

Re: Opinions on effects of DA? Mikey, your starting to sound like a bracket racer! Every car is different which is why racers keep logs. Ballpark for gas is 200'= .01ET , alcohol is 300'=.01ET. This is a starting point and cars will differ.
OSR 1 : Rumors are that Cecil is a 2% down grade. There are 5 tracks in the 200 mile area and almost everyone hits Cecil for their best runs.
