When I asked about it, he said it's actually safer to get tuned at sea level and drive hard at altitude as apposed to getting tuned at elevation and driving hard at sea level...primarily because of all of the timing you can run up here.
You about nailed it. Since I didn't have the opportunity to get tuned at sea level I had to do the next best thing which is some timing tweaks and rich AFR. I don't plan on running it too hard down there. My main reason for going is Warped tour SF.
