lol, QFT... my 7th gen civic is not a race machine, once you learn and accept that fact, you'll enjoy your car a lot more.

Just as long as you guys have realistic expectations. Anything above 4500ft DA and anything below 16s is really good for those cars. Not uncommon to see 350z's run 15s at this track, SRT8 chargers 14s etc...

I'm a realist. I've also taken a trip down the 1320 with a bolt on B18B Integra 16.0@84.

I'm a big guy too so weight will not be in my favor lol. I'm realistically shooting for low 15. Although if a 14.99 landed, then that would be great!

I think my particular car has the power to land a decent time.

Guys on the 8thgencivic.com are running low 15s, high 14s @ SEA LEVEL stock, I wouldnt be suprised if I ran mid 16s all night long (and im not a terrible driver)

This is true. Our altitude sucks big time.

Although.. I have seen someone here (cough lsvtec/crx) take a stock ITR with just an intake into the 14's.

If autox is running, bring your car over there -- that's all about driving skill.

I don`t think at the mph you were trapping last week that you can expect a 14 second pass.

If you can get a 92-93 mph pass then it`s achievable. I think the 60 ft is killing you big time. You have to find a way to launch higher cause from the stands it looked like you were bogging pretty bad on each launch.

you can race as long as it's street legal(not really required), have a helmet (which can be rented there), have nothing loose in the car, and it passes tech (no busted lugnuts or other important components).

i think i can pull off a 14 with that mph, i guess we'll have to see what i can do the next couple of fridays.

Easily.

When I was at the track with my Eg, I lined up against Toma's SRT4.

He ran a 14.4@91 If I recall. I ran a [email protected] lol

First run for me, 60ft was SHIT hah

Darkanes is, I can see you getting in the 14s if you get all the tangibles right.

This is true. Although we're only about 10whp apart. Dyno proven.

Also CSX is 150pounds heavier than my coupe? It might be pretty close. I would like a 14.99 just because :D

EDIT: Ls/Vtec-Crx did you get your reflash and the other pieces?

EDIT x2: Don't know how accurate this is, but a couple articles I looked at, the CSX is only 2 pounds heavier than the coupe? Wierd.

Time will tell I guess,
I can honestly say I expect 16s, its not a drag car by any means. If anything it will be a good starting point for some bolt ons this year.
