Default Numidia Raceway Results

Well, I learned that my days of running on regular street tires are definitely over.

I could get NO traction with the Kumhos even when I aired them down and it was actually kind of scary going down the track while getting in and out of the throttle to keep it going straight. The car was even trying to get sideways at my 1-2 shifts.

On the bright side, in spite of my traction problems, I still managed to post my best times ever and I know there's more in the car to be had.

My best run of the day:

12.462 @ 115.57 2.075 60' (Numidia is ~1000' above sea level)

I did not know that. Not that it would make that much of a difference, but I wonder what our times would be a sea level.

As you say, probably not very much. The official NHRA altitude correction table doesn't start until 1200' above sea level.
