[QUOTE="93 347 Cobra, post: 16317151, member: 7047"] I became keenly aware of the effects of DA at the last Colorado Mile I attended before I sold my 2014. DA was over 8K in the afternoons. My car was running 121-22 in the quarter, 147-148 in the half, and 171-173.5 in the full mile. Interestingly enough I tried searching for stock standing mile times for 13-14 stock cars and could only locate Derek Venables's times from the Texas Mile from years ago. His only timeslip I found he was running 150 or 151 in the 1/2 and 174 in the full mile. A rough illustration of the difference thinner air makes on acceleration over 150, he was 3-4 faster in the half and less than 1 faster at the Mile finish. Don't know if I posted that before but thought you'd find that interesting. OP has a really nice ride with his RE and can really drive as evidenced by his 1.4x 60-foot on drag radials. He's not giving himself enough credit for being a good driver and I seriously doubt there's much difference between he and Evan Smith in an auto. We're lucky we can still bench race gasoline powered vehicles. The gasoline powered car is in big trouble as soon as the cost to produce electric drops below gasoline. From that point forward automakers will invest even less in developing gasoline powered performance cars. The end is nigh and we should all enjoy while we can. I'm gonna save up and stretch my budget for this 2020+ GT500, Ford's best ever. [/QUOTE]
