Very impressive run- how many runs did you take until you got the 13.26?? Did you torque brake to get that run or just mashed the throttle?

Conditions...

I'll ask again on this forum...
Can you elaborate on the conditions?
Specifically temperature and altitude - If you don't know the altitude, then just the location (state - county)

Thanks,

the temp and alt.

55degrees ..400feet below sea level...Houston Race Way Park in Texas one of the best places in the nation to get the best times!....one guy from NY with 3 highly modified vipers came here to race and went back ..just because of the conditions and alt. here

You should try my ESP DYNO test mode and see if it has any effect on your times.

Is this a typo? Do you mean 40 feet above sea level? Is this an observed altitude based on an uncorrected (to sea level) barometric measurement when the atmospheric pressure was high?

well..

it said in DIAGNOSTIC mode...so i wouldn't expect it to let you drive as fast as you want..all it does it just put you in DIAG. MODE and turns off all that crap..nothing really great
