yes alot of you RGV guys run fast times for sure but if you guys would bring your trucks up north and run in the mountains none of your times would be close to what they are now. now not knocking just stating facts your track is faster with elevation and DA compared to us being so high up in mountains

as for the ppl that lie...simple saying to that one......."aint got to lie to kick it"

actually, well I'm sure the valley isnt as bad as where ur from, but there's people that claim our track is an awesome track to run at when they have never even visited.. it's actually a pretty awful track, constantly the track prep is damn shitty and on the right lane passing the 1/8th mile there's a slight bump, going at high speeds you can feel it kinda bad. This is why many people from here want to go to Houston to run.. Now Houston is the place to run, their track is the **** and location elevation-wise and DA-wise is way better.

Run what you brung and the time is the time. If you live in the mountains or in the valley the time on the slip is the time on the slip. No excuses for running slow and likewise no bs about guys running at negative DA. It is what it is and that is it.

so basically what your saying is no credit is due? cus we got a good track and elevation? well go on a road trip and test ur setup elsewhere if you have mountains and all that...i doubt we can change that...

its like complaining about them stock c6 z06s in the 10s up in the east coast and giving all the credit to the track and none to the car or driver??

basically, we have a nice track (elevation wise) prep aint too bad (plenty cars hit 1.2-1.5 60s) and we have nice setup in our vehicles that help.

o im not doubting or going against the whole run what you brung. but just saying if we would do correction for alot of ppls times then you would see the differences. not to mention its like dyno times. thats why there is a SAE corrected.

but dont let this look as im disregaurding a fellow boosted small motor cause im not. i figured his truck would run similar to as it does. i just hope mine runs similar up here
