Default How much of a difference does....

the altitude of your location affect the way your car performs? I noticed when i was back in the Carolinas my car felt much stronger than it does here in Minot. I believe Raleigh/Durham, NC is about 360ft above sea level and Minot, ND is about 1500ft abouve seal level. What does that translate to in terms of 1/4 mile time differences?
