It would have been really easy to make this a meaningful list for everyone in North America. You already require people to post a time slip. The track name, date and time are on the slip and that's all you need to get weather/DA data and convert times with the tools at dragtimes.com. This really makes a difference in gauging/comparing the reality of all times. In my case, my best time of 14.52 is actually my third best converted time at 13.25. After conversion, my real best time came from a 14.77 run that converted to a 13.22 (the DA was 8342 that day!)

Anyway, that ends my rant. Hope you're all enjoying your Camaro as much as I'm enjoying mine!

As much as it might suck, 1/4 mile records are based on actual track times. Corrected track times are not real track times. Corrected track times are for people to get an "idea" of what their car "might" run under more optimumal conditions. But they are not actual track times.

Official 1/4 mile records are based on the actual time a car runs (E.T. uncorrected).
