How many runs did you get in Chris? Am I reading it right that you only got one? If so then don't sweat all of the details, it takes a few runs to get in the grove, at least for me (uber-newb)

I got in at least 8 runs... So driver error and need nlts turned on.. BUT I had my boost turned down to only 21psi because I was breaking up at higher boost. I replaced my plugs and turned it back up to 27psi and then boom goes the axle...

NLTS won't help you with 20mph.

True but with slow shifting I was losing rpms and boost. This would help.

Yes, that was me and I was thinking the same thing. Do you think that the humidity makes that much of a difference?

Its the driver. Get the car together and get driving.

It was obviously too hot/humid for any record passes, meaning that even if you did break a record you would still do better on a cooler day.

Even with the heat, sounds like a few still broke some personal records.

Nate I would think you'd pick up more than 20mph in the back half. Sandbagger!

Dam so close to the 9s. Once you get your 60 foots down you will get deep in to the 9s.
