Where can i go to run 1/4 mile in Southern California??

I've been to the one in Palmdale but that elevation kills the times. Last time i went i got a 15.5
Anyone know any places where the elvation is not so much?

Well you can go to fontana, they have 1/4 mile for imports. You might want to go online and look at their schedule i'm pretty sure they are closed during winter season. What was your 60ft at palmdale and your trap speed? I hit a 15.4@91mph with CAI, headers and thermoblock spacers...

I dont really remember the exact numbers since this was so long ago... I only know that i ran 15.5 and was very dissapointed. My mods at the time were CAI/H.

I think the ALT is somewhere around 3000 feet, not really sure.

Usually at palmdale (LACR) the cars that trap 100mph are modded m3's. Thats how bad the altitude is there...

I cut the 15.4 with a 2.4 60ft time. Its a waste because there is no oxygen in the air up there because of the elevation. Also because our stall is at 3k rpm, we really dont have much power or torque at that rpm to get a better 60ft, especially with my 19's.
