If you call a morning of rain and some afternoon showers ideal...
Full marks to Santa Pod for their improved RWYB track prep regime - they worked hard to get things presentable for the afternoon, but were still up against constant threat of dampness throughout the day. Air quality and density probably very good - some of the "real" race cars were running PBs and a Fuel bike ran a 6.5 at 169 mph! RH lane was the place to be and that was where Steve did his best run.
Temperature 8-10 degrees (good for air intake, bad for the track)
Humidity moderate to low (50-60%) this is good a too much humidity displaces the oxygen
Air pressure moderate to high (1025mb) (helps cylinder fill)
Slight tail(ish) wind, fading out towards the afternoon.
Track prep 8.5/10
Overall I would call it "favourable"
Ideal would be
18-20 degrees
Dry as a bone (hadnt rained for a while)
High air pressure
10/10 track prep
All of that can make a couple of tenths differance which might not seem a lot but at 100 mph thats a couple of car lengths.

The 240 in front of you needed a turbo and nitrous to beat you by a tenth. Definitely got the 'skills to pay the bills' that boy. Did you turn your cap 'round before getting in your car for the last run..?
