Not like you race in anything other than Negative DA so much worse then anything you've likely ever raced in.

DA was around 3400 last I heard

I've got a passenger floorboard full of slips. Think the best was 12.25 @ 110. Had many 112 traps and some 115's. Poor stock turbos just can't handle the heat. Usually run 114 - 116 mph on all passes.

Thanks to everyone that came and for the donations. Grand total we raised for the Trust For Life was $1600. Got a very high level of respect for you all.

I'll get to work on videos and what not tomorrow. I'll try to get links to vids by non-tech members corralled up and share them, along with my own material.

Again, big thanks everyone!

I've seen different da from different sources. Nbd....not the first time I've seen that. Not like the da stays constant. So it could've very likely been anything between 3000 and 3400 and been with in the realm anyone said with no consequences.

No absolute rule in the world that said i woulda sliwed down or how much. Ive ran very similar #s in a 2k da swing.....so has phil very recently. Ive seen far bigger differences in track prep/traction than i have da. But once Again.....it's not about me.

It was great to see everyone. Had a blast! DA was horrid. No doubt about it. Still, we all suffered it together with the Hio cre.... Oh right none of them showed... Well atleast i got to have a civil discussion with assas... Shoot neither did he.

Welp to those that weren't too chicken **** to show up. Thanks for the laughs! Great bunch of dudes. Special thanks to Sw for hosting. DD for the GThunny ride. Poppa for taking the gf for a ride at the track. Most of all Joebro for making it all happen. Hope to do this again sometime.

Shoulda been no surprises i wasn't there. What is surprising is no one got any et's. If i had ran and not got a et the world would implode.

82* and 47% humidity is not terrible air.

thing is you wouldn't run in anything other than Hero weather. They went there to have a good time and put faces to names, not to go set world records

and since temperature and Humidity are the only things that effect DA right

I guess you missed the part where i said I've ran in "bad" air to. And why is this about me again?

Well...i try to run at the beginning and end if the year. Part of the reason for that is they are a little lax on their rules then. I have no cage you know. Why is this about me?

Did i say air temp and humidity was the only thing that affects da

It's a pretty good indicator tho.

Its cool they all met and ran. But if they wanted they coulda met and not ran. Either way nothing wrong wiyh sharing your times.

Seems shady to me.

Real world times are nothing to be embarrassed about IMO. Most people don't have the luxury of running in winter air

Very true. It's unfortunate to watch them try and make this about Hio. Instead of maning up and owning their outing.

No excuses. I think everyone ran well for the conditions. Hell half the time DD, was shuttling passengers down the track lol. Not exactly the recipe to set a personal best.
