Also, I am assuming there was a significant rise in temperature from run 3 @12:49 in comparison to run 4 @ 2:31. Do you happen to know what the temp difference was? Just curious.
Thanks for taking the time to post your results.
I agree with you 100%, I was losing MPH as the day warmed up and run #4 probably would have been 105.XX So, realistically the car could have picked up about 1.5 MPH and .15 seconds in ET. I just wished I could have got another clean run that day to back up run #4. But it did not happen.

Everything here is good except run #5 was a little weird. It did feel a little flat going into 3rd gear which would explain the lower MPH, but the ET was still pretty good.

And even run #6 was trash except if you think about it 106 MPH is excellent for me pedaling it in first gear. I literally had to chop the throttle closed and then stab it back to the floor to get the clutch pedal to come up and the clutch to apply. This is a known problem that I wish someone had a fix for.

I was using the display in the car for temps and I did not look at it until run#2 and it read 72. On run #4 it peaked at 75, but it felt a lot hotter standing around and definately sitting in the car. But you have to realize the car was sitting and I am thinking that ambient temp display does not read right unless you are driving/moving. Every time I remembered to look at it the car was sitting. There was no wind at all.
