Default my first time slips!

here's my first time slips (left side is CO time, right side is SAE corrected @ sea level times)

CO = 15.907 @ 91 SAE = 13.5 @ 106
-60 ft. = 2.382 -RT = .400

CO = 16.390 @ 67 (braked so i didnt breakout) SAE = 13.9 @ 94
-60 ft. = 2.397 -RT = .401

CO = 16.904 @ 83 (missed a shift) SAE = 14.38 @ 98
-60 ft. = 2.507 -RT = .215

CO = 16.228 @ 86 (first run ever!) SAE = 13.81 @ 102
-60 ft. = 2.331 -RT = .560 (i suck, first run ever )


pretty much i am happy with my times for a mild 97 gt with a noob at the wheel....hope to go soon with coming intake and get into mid 15's with better RTs!

any advice on where to go from here?

oh yeah, Colorado's elevation sucks!!!!!!! 5600 ft at 90* sucks!!!

Holy "cars are slow in Co" Batman!

It's like you are running on only 6 cyclinders up there. You would crap your pants if you drove at 500 feet. It would feel lime you dumped a turbo in the car.
