What was the temp. on your 12.6 and lower runs?
For those running 12.6's and below, what was the temperature that day? I made 6 runs back to back and couldnt get out of the 12.90's for s!@#!!(on F1's) The temp. was around 77-80 deg. the day of my runs. My speed was 106 and Ive seen lesser speeds on this board in the low to mid 12's. What am I doing wrong?
With cooler temps of 40's or 50's I know my truck pulls alot harder,but can never find a track open it seems.

Not what you asked about but,
similar.....Ran last nite--65 degrees--first three runs off the street--only 30 min. cool down before 1 st pass at 12.931@106.15, then 2 more, back-to-back--12.927@105.71 and 12.926@105.66---still 65 degrees.
Two more runs--2 hrs. later at 55 degrees and all I could do was a 13.057@106.65 and a 13.244@106.09. Btw, Rusty(from Vidalia, GA) whupped up on me those last two passes--he ran a 13.190@105.94 and a 13.161@105.69. His 13.190 beat my 13.057 because(?) of his quicker r/t--.584 to my .750. Two good, close races but I wish we both went into the 12s then.
