I'd assume Alex's car being RWD hooked up better and you spun a bit more off the line. Haven't you ever noticed that 10 sec hondas trap like 150+mph? Besides you trapped 1 or 2 mph more which isn't THAT much.

Yeah maybe. The integra is currently not starting due to a dead battery/lack of a need to drive it. Besides I might feel bad getting pulled on by a miata...

Kinda like the mustang on radials that was behind me for a while on my last run...I think he messed up the launch though cause he came up on me in like the last section of the strip and beat me by .2 with a trap 11mph higher

Honduh · 03-26-2009, 01:30 AM

lol yeah kinda like that minus the passing you part.

LOL. Regardless I am happy. I went out hoping for at least a 14.5 and I hit that, especially happy since I never went to the strip before. Kinda disappointed because it was so close to 14.4 though but I think next time with less gas, removal of some dead weight, and better launching I can get my 14.4 if not faster.

At that point I will be doing the FM downpipe which is a great power pickup, as well as an exhaust (still undecided on which) later down the line. My goal is 13s by the end of summer.

DPancoast · 03-26-2009, 05:41 AM

The downpipe and exhaust will really open up the car. Nice numbers man. I wanna go to the strip with my car eventually.

InvisibleMonkey · 03-26-2009, 05:51 AM

no lie that's better than i ran with the supra but i only had the car a week before taking it to e-town

my fastest was a 14.8 @ 98 mph, lol i was horrible

Nice job Mr Clean. Nice job.

How about get some dr's and get the most out of your current mods?

I mean do what you want but to me it makes more sense to get the most out of each mod. Adding more power will only cause more tire spin. You need to get some track passes in anyway so you get better and more in touch with your car.

If you dropped your 60ft to a 1.9 you're right at a possible 13 second pass.

Im no track expert, but I dont think he has the mph for a 13sec pass. Car needs more power.
