I believe the track is pretty close to 1600 ft above sea level. According to NHRA guidelines multiply your ET by .9822 and your trap MPH by 1.0185 to correct for the elevation.
You're going to see a definite difference in the timeslips you'll get at Bristol than say at VMP, but like I said, we're not racing timeslips, we're racing against each other at the same track, so its still "fair."
So to reinterate, besides Dan, Leibo, Jeff Taylor, Rguy, Rhombus, and I; who else is definetely going to race?
Oh, and Dan, of course the S2K can come run, its not like we have a trophy or something set aside for it, just bragging rights-heh heh. I just had to jazz up the thread a bit with the "Fastest N/A Honda" comment.

Ah. I'm guessing that's Mike Crawford. I was unware that Mike Crawford ever went to bristol I know he runs the tracks in NC for testing though. If it is Mike, you won't see that car ever run the street class.

conversation between Rhombus and parktron 22,000:
Parktron- "eh, I don't think I'm gonna bring my bottle to Bristol"
Rhombus- "WHAT? Hell, after you whoop up on some smaller hondas you're gonna want to get some nitrous runs in"
Parktron- "hmm, yeah, you're right, ok hell with it, I'll bring it"
----gotta start the trash talkin rguy to keep the suspense up, heh heh
