Default Re: Vapor Pressure

Not sure I can explain it however, I believe it is best to watch it when the humidity is high.
I my case it affects the car when it is high and there is a breakover point at which it really affects the et.
It is a expression of humidity which is also affected by the atmospheric pressure. They are tied together when it comes to the HP the engine can make.
Just watching humidity is not enough as the adjusted altitude is factored in. It is really something to watch when racing at altitude tracks. It can fool you.
