Non-supercharged cars perform noticeably different at the higher 
elevations, even at the 4,500' of Reno.  Be sure to allow more time and 
space for merging from on ramps and passing, even on level or downhill 
grades.  Any carburetor problems will be exaggerated at the higher 
elevations.
A good rule of thumb is a 3% deterioration in performance per 1000 ft of 
elevation.  I would expect the Brutes to be able handle 15% but as stated, the 
carb problems will be more so.
