In the low 80's. Mountian Parkway Dragstrip. Clay City, KY.
Best 14.54 @ 91.7mph, 60ft 2.15. G-Timer of same run timed 14.15 @ 95mph.
My original goal when starting with mods to my truck was to get into the 13's and thought I had.

You won't be able to compare apples to apples against someone running at sea level on a cool night. I think those times aren't bad at all considering the conditions!

After some thought and reading, my G-timer probably is more accurate than I thought. 1> I should add my reaction time to G-Timer. 14.25 + .319 = 14.57. Righ on my ET for that run. 2> I am not certian my "test track" is entirely level. There might be a slight down grade. Looks level..... but who knows. I read once that you should make a pass in both directions and average the time.
Anyway, planning on putting the cam in next weekend. If I don't have to travel to CA. I'm onboard with the Yank TrT2600 and I'm going to get more serious about tuning. Considering wideband purchase. Bye Bye wheels I had planned.
Thanks for all the Input guys!

All in all, those times arent that bad.
