Message I can't say it loud enough...this is NOT scientific at all but it seems like our higher horsepower turbo cars lose around .4-.6 tenths going from the 2,700' Palmdale to the nearly sea-level tracks. Time and time and time and time again this has been the case. Normally it's very hard to notice this but many of the drivers are getting quite good and run the exact 60' times in both locations so this makes it a bit easier to read.

Everytime we've "claimed" a quicker number being possible at another track we've backed it up, if not broken it so I'm not 100% speaking out of my ass. Maybe just 50% ;)

Seriously though, he'll get to Fontana or Bakersfield soon.
