Because that is all the DA calculations do, they use math formulas to adjust for changing, known conditions and convert the time accordingly. NASCAR and the NHRA use the same principle.
I understand that, but I didn't know NHRA takes ET's and then adjusts them for elevation and various temp and humidity factors. That must transpire during commercial break I guess.
