    I think when it's cool, you won't see much difference. But when it gets above 80...mid 60's at best. only 2 more weeks. We'll find out soon enough!

    I dont believe 97 percent will have any effect at all

    There were a pair of Fourties by Ashley and Olivarez this past weekend testing in Vegas if thats any indication.

    1 717M A/FD Aaron Olivarez, Sandy UT, Sarmento-BAE 5.463 240.42 240.42
    2 4 A/FD Ashley Force, Yorba Linda CA, McKinney-B 5.483 249.21 249.21

    I think we will see more teens in perfect conditions, and mid to high 30's above 3000' corrected alt.

    I've seen some pretty perfect condtions already, and a best time of 5.39 from Niver..............Force has been running a bunch of 4.60s, so it must be pretty good
