DA = Density Altitude. It is an air density equivalency calculation factoring in temp, humidity, barometric pressure and altitude.

Congrats on the new times. Looks like you have your setup working well.

if you work the suspension it'll correct the unloading, you'll gain better times your MTs i run them also, but which compound do you run ans is the side wall stiff? i plan on switching to a softer sidewall and a softer compound!!


great times by all means !!!

Good times man. It's cool seeing these heavy trucks running low 7s in the eighth. Should be putting my 228r cam in this weekend. Y'all need to make a trip to Douglas. I wouldn't mind trying my new setup when the weather cools back down. I'd be happy with a 7.4 when I'm done. Maybe a grudge match? Ha

These times were from earlier when it was cooler.

1.67 60ft
7.66 1/8
89.8 MPH

I have put on a ls6 intake and deleted the front sway bar and a/c and added dry N2O so I expect better times now

Skeet, I know that its not the really soft compound with the S after the size, but I run a pretty lazy sidewall cause theyw ill wrinkle pretty damn good!
