10.91 @ 124 Diesel only

Had too much Fun In woodburn Oregon @ the 29th Annual Thunder Truck Drags to not share the great news, I Drove the Source Automotive 05 to a new personal best of 10.91 @ 124+MPH and ended up winning the NHRDA pro 1 Final Thanks to a Very patient Steve Oppencsky, Just want to thank first off Rip Rook for letting me go out an beat on his truck and to Robert and Jerry @ Source Automotive for putting in long hours over the last 2 weeks to get the truck ready for this race, Thanks Bob Wagner @ smarty, Tony @ Dunrite Convertors

What about difference in elevation? Does that make a difference for a diesel like it does a gasser?.
Medicine Hat is at 5000' above sea level. I think Oregan is a whole lot lower.
