Autos usually seem to trap 104-105 when stock. My car and my wife's auto '01 Z28 both trapped 105. The track we go to is only about 400 ft above sea level. Those runs were done in the spring, so maybe they would have done slightly better in the fall, who knows. We were pretty satisfied at the time.

You couldn't be more right about that site. I take everything from that site with a grain of salt.


Tommy, I'd say 105 is more common. I have seen a few run 107-108 though. Could be weather, could be a hidden free mod, etc...

I've seen a lot of sub 105 traps from autos at Cordova but I also have sub 105 traps here as the DA is rarely under 2000 (only 2 months a year when that happens).

I try not to look at those results as 'normal' since not everyone has to suffer with crap DA.
