Yes. A 50 shot typically does this.

Yes, or it was one of the factors, probably combined with the high humidity/heat. All of my friends were running unusually bad, and out of 3 runs my best was a 15.8 @ 84.xx (which felt like a very good run) when usually it would be 15.4 @ 88.xx. My friend with a Civic usually runs 15 flats and his best all day, out of 10 or so runs, was only a 15.3. My friend with a Probe GT best was a 16 flat, and friend with a Celica GT was 16.1. Both of these should be running in the 15.6-15.7 range. I also heard some guys with real drag cars mention something about a bad head wind.
