Dang it! OK Ed I'll bite, you raced @3500 ft. in New Jersey... didn't know there were mountains in that state. Either that or it was 95 degrees 80% humiditry plus your stated barometer. You went 8.90 with a RESTRICTOR PLATE, I knew Nascar used them on the super speedways to slow the cars down, I have to ask.... what are you using one for? NO really this is a legitimate question. So lets recap you state your car is faster than mine..it is, it runs 8 tenths faster with over double the cubes and weighs a whopping 170 lbs. more. Really I fail to see what all the puffery is about. However carry on. Joe

Joe,
I think the 3500' is where his ego races. All the weather stations I looked at over the weekend in New Jersey ranged between 385' to just over 1500' depending on the time of day. And baro was 29.51 to 30.09 uncorrected. ![]() |

Ed races at Numidia pretty regularly....
It's in Pa. and up on a pretty good hill so it is well above sea level...... I have raced there when my weather station showed it was 4000' DA... Mid 90's and very humid..... We do have fast conditions and race tracks in this area in the spring and fall but not when it's summer time..... I have seen well above 3000' at other tracks in summer time....
