Awesome #s!!!
As far as I know it's 50/50 as to what people think effect DA has on boosted cars. I think the general concensus is that it does effect us but not on the same scale as an N/A car. Personally I htink it's going to effect us close to an N/A car because even though the PSI is slightly reduced there is still a lack of oxygen density but I don't know enough of physics to figure it out. I just know that almost everyone agrees you can't use the N/A calculations.
So um, where's the video?? :p

The Density Altitude was 6040!
Pretty stoked to break into the 12's at my crappy altitude.

Only goes to 5500 feet, but you are pushing a large wall through the wind too...
5500' Elapsed Time Factor: .9315 MPH Factor: 1.0731

I do have a vid of it, but it's on a vhs-c tape. I'm planning on sending it along with some other footage to kyle for the truck video.
