I went to Richmond Dragway in Sandston, VA for round 2 today! The track is ~100ft above sea level and according to the National Weather Service conditions were as follows:
Temp: 55 deg F (at time of 1st run), 60 deg F (at time of my 2nd run)
Relative Humidity: 24 %
Barometer: 30.14 in. Hg
Dewpoint: 20°F (-7°C)
My car is 100% bone stock with 6,800 miles on the odometer. I'm running a 'true' factory stock set-up (nothing from the intake, intake resonator, turbo, intercooler, exhaust, engine management, etc has been changed). I used Shell 93 octane gas (had just over a 1/4 tank) and my tire pressures were set at 40psi all around. Only weight reduction I did was remove my spare tire (left jack in the trunk). I weigh 170lbs.
I got to the track early and my engine was able to cool for 1.5 hours before my first pass. I made 2 passes and launched at 5,000rpms w/ clutch slip. I'm car #22:

This was a cool turbo-charged twin rotary RX-7 that competed in NOPI last season and was switching to NHRA this year:
