Believe it or not, I'm having a fine day, I'm just a jerk all the time

My point was just that there are too many variables for this exercise to have any meaning.

8k launch very little pressure, Should get you sub 2.0. I could have sworn I read someone on streets ran a 1.8X a little while back. I can't talk I've only ever launched on R compounds.

Skip, like payneinthe said, there are just too many variables to be able to guess what might happen. Yes, heat and humidity can make you slow; so can available traction, track surface, weight, quality of gas, head or tailwind, etc. etc.

Hey, I appreciate your answers. I know it was not possible to get a true time... just needed a ballpark. Nobody laughed me off the site for the 1/8th mile time, so I didn't get the impression that it was a horrible time.
