What is my adjusted 1/4 time????
I know most of you guys have the pleasure of running your ponies closer to sea level but the track I race at is 3500 above sea level and my best run has been 15.02 at 89.9mph with my G-60 McCreary's, 3.55's, and pulleys, should I be ashamed???. Anyhow, I was just wondering what my car would run if I brought it around sea level.

Hey I am almost in the same boat as you our altitude isnt quite that high here. I run a 15.2 in an 88GT vert with 3.08 gears and all I get is criticised and told that I cant drive most of these idiots that are talking crap are racing at sea level and just don get it I guess.
I think that you could knock about 4 tenths off of that time at sea level.

Don't know how much it helps, but for reference i recently ran my 90 LX convertible (AOD) and ran a 15.2 at sea level. It shoul be a lot faster (say, 14.7 maybe) with a manual.
