Well definitly good luck on the calc3. Im sure that its very tough.i havent done calculus before , but like i said, i still know how hard final tests can be. I finished my schooling at sheppard air force base about 1 1/2 years ago. I passed with a 94.1 average, and that was on turbine compressor engines.Or jet engines if u will. I know its not like calc 1,2,or3, but i think u will agree , that as far as something hard to study for and take this rates pretty high too. Once again though Good luck on ur finals. Also have a great christmas holiday and break from school.

i thought you were a criminal justice major? If so why would you need calc 3 and 4?

as for the times i would like Rare4thgens to come in here and post up the time differences he had between Firebird and a michigan track (he used to live in AZ) becuase of the obvious elevation changes affect the times very much. I have heard the difference between arizona and michigan is a loss of 3/10-1/2 second...so NA i think it would be a very close race

like i said before lets cool it down a little...were both GM guys...were both Trans am guys...were both bike guys (although i dont have one yet)...shit what else could we ask for lol...
i mean damn i need someone to ride with when i get my bike :smt045 :smt023

callin a truce here :smt023

and im keeping my $10 lol

Phoenix is about 2000 ft above. Tucson is 3075 and goin from there to Phoenix dropped our times about .5 seconds. Milan is about 800 ft above I think and I typically run about .5 seconds faster there then I did in Phoenix. Just for the record, with the exception of a Holley air filter, I ran a low 13.9 @102.2 something with a 2.275 60 at Firebird in my 96 SS. That was in early winter if I remember right. That winter when it actually got pretty cold, I can't remember exactly but I ran approximittly 14.0@101 in Tucson so there was a lot more waiting had I got the chance again in Phoenix. What time of year did you run that time Jerry? If it was summer, you can do much better even there. Hope that helps.
