1/4 mile times at elevation

Curious if anyone has run one at high elevation. I live at 5500ft with a DA average of 8000ft. What kind of times are you guys getting up high?

I hope to be doing some runs this summer, although I haven’t found a good location near me yet (for Draggy runs anyhow). I may have to find a local drag strip situation. I’m at ~5800 ft.

Not an issue as long as you are racing others with the same handicap. LOL.

Thanks for the replies. Im in the process of trying to get into a 2019 White M5 comp and if i get it i will definitely let you guys know how it does. Unfortunately we all suffer from the altitude up here. Some compensate with bigger turbos but i am not willing to do void the warranty with any mods for a long while. This will be my first car with warranty in like 15 years and after my Mclaren debacle id like to keep it. LOL

You're up here as well. Please keep me posted if you do.
