Which avatar?
last fall I ran a best 12.0 at 117.5MPH up here in Colorado at PMI. I think the track elevation is around 5000ft above sea level. Do not have the DA. The conversion factor that day was around .9292 I think(at least someone said that at the track) so that would translate into an 11.2 at 126.5MPH.
I have been using the 12 second avatar, but someone IM me and said hey at your altitude you should get to use the conversion factor and use the 11second avatar.
What do you guys think???

Did you got the track in Denver? There is another track that is a lower altitude which should get you a true 11 second slip.
However, one should not have to go to great lengths to change their avatar so there I say if you want to use the 11 second avatar do it. Heck copy it, add the words, "Altitude Corrected" in fine print and you are good.
