1.3ish for every 1000' is closer imo. So 7000+ would be damn near a full second.

It's usually the people that are actually at sea level that try to say it is less of a difference because they don't want to let people at higher elevation think they can come close to their times.

Just goin by what the calculators say. No matter what the elevation is you still have to put together the pass.

Nice kills and honorable death! Yea i hate the elevation difference. Here in el paso cammed cars with drag radials run high 12's or low 13's on average. Stock f bodies run mid to low 14's. It seems bad but the new 5.0s seem to be running low 14's and sometimes high 13's on average (stock).

I agree but the tranny has had it's issues so I baby in the gears. When shifting to third it goes in between gears, so no power. People watching this see my reverse lights go on too. I don't like to shift like I used to. Tranny needs building first
