And would you believe our own Stock/SuperStock Ford magazine editor is in the house ? Evan Smith , former New Jersey resident stopped up from Florida to visit his in-laws and got himself a job this weekend driving one of Anthony Bongiovannis' CobraJets .Welcome back Evan ........

Even though the weather won't let us go fast the track is in excellant condition this morning as I didn't hear one complaint yet ..........The Atco staff combined with the NHRA crew got this place hummin'.

2500' is slow? Jack, you need to come run Div 4 for a while. LOL

What in the world are you guys used to?

Ed we are a little spoiled here in Div. 1 but I have been to Houston in the spring time and it was pretty dam fast. And I didn't see one snow shovel. Barry

D-1 is the place Ed. DA of 1500 or less(sometimes a lot less) barometer of 30 plus and wheelies that last so long you feel yourself aging in reverse.

My DA chart for D-1

< 0 = real good/great......chamber of commerce conditions
<1000= pretty good
1000-2000......not great but not brutal
2000-3000......getting bad
3000-4000......Bad(Epping two weeks ago)
4000+.......Uncivilized....

I have been to Atco and Englishtown when the DA on my hand held weather station said - 500 or better

Englishtown is about an hour north and can also have air like that on a crsip sunday morning in the spring or fall.....

2000-2500 is about normal in warm conditions

I was at Numidia earlier this month.....and it was 3600 feet.....

Worst I ever saw around here at any track was about 4000-4200.....

At the Dutch Classic in October at Maple Grove, the DA is routinely -500 or better every morning of the 4 day event.
