If those guys get in SS/IA or SS/HA we will run, I have my car to have fun and I know what my capabilities are so I don't get uptight. Heck I am in Florida, if you don't know one of the fastest if not fastest at sea level non factored SS/IA cars is here and it belongs to Rick Brewer. I know I can't out run him so I don't worry about it, he's go me covered by a second.
My whole point is we all need to run our cars and not worry about the guy in the other lane, if he has to put a number on the window make him run his number.

I've raced there in august/september in 4200' DA. where's the correction factor for 110% humidity and 104 degrees? THERE ISN'T ONE! and you shouldn't get a freebie record because you are at a factored track.

Brewer is fast, but I really doubt he is the fastest SS/HA or SS/IA.

Angelo DiTocco runs pretty well.

It amazes me they can get those cars light enough to run H.

Ed, thats because Ang cant get his car light enough to run HA, when he runs HA, he is ususally heavy for IA.

Does anybody know if these AA/SA Fords are running LOCK-UP torque converters?
