    Talking Night at the races

    I don't know if this thread is already up but here is the low down for Secret Street. Hot and Humid like 65% humidity I heard.

    Turbo red civic coupe, pretty fast did low 16 I believe correct me if I'm wrong

    VW rabbit with 2.0 liter and T-04b turbo, cool car dude, full rollcage, nice black paint, owner some guy named George(cool guy too) Said he's been working on this car for like 5 years and finally it's done. First time at the track and ran 14.7 @ 97mph I believe correct me if I'm wrong. Looking forward to see it next week.

    Mau's Supra with launch kit installed, still having traction problems ran 12.7@119 and 12.9@120. Kept on blowing his intercooler pipes and losing boost. Leaving for Edmonton to represent Cowtown tomorrow in shoot out. New TRD Carbon Fiber hood, looks tight.

    Spyguy and his OG WRX. Such a nice looking car and so clean. First time meeting him, cool guy too. His car ran low 15's, very impressive. Car launches like crazy, looking forward to seeing it run again

    1970's Datsun 510 with small block in it running high 14's. Trippy hearing a sound of a small block out of an import, but totally cool car.

    There were some other Honda's that showed up later to race. Some Mopar cars representing too. Saw the white SLK AMG there too and the Intrigue crew. Not too many cars but always fun to chill and check out rides.

    Peace

    the civic would be Ed_the_SOHC.. best time of the nite with a passenger in the car would be a 15.3

    spyguy pulled mid 15's... it wasn't the best conditions as the humidity factored in the elevation was around the 6300 ft mark.

    see 15's wtf people are so stupid, i goto race city, everyone i know the last week asked what times did you get, 16.3 ...oh thats it, cause that stupid F&F movie everyone thinks that anything but 10 sec is slow

    its good to say, look shut up if you would go you would see the only cars running high 13's low 14's even 15's are turbo/supercharged cars and good old USA 5.0 gas pigs so SHUT IT/

    sorry my first full rant on the board, feels pretty good.
    (eds civic is .......wow

    I think your car should be running quicker than 16.6, it's a JDM spec engine, right? Either your car is really heavy or it needs some tuning, cause there are stock Preludes out there that are running mid to high 15's, like Buh_Buh and LUDELVR for instance.

    i do belive the car is too heavy, but i do not know what i can do to fix it.
    theres 1 sub, 1 amp and a fiberglass trunk which really do not weigh all that much
    and im not sure how much the rims weight, i know the hood weighs a bit, and it has been vfac tuned

    4th gens are lighter than 5th gens too. I say just work on your launches and shifts and you'll be in the 15's in no time.

    Tom man,, that car needs no tuneing, it was running beter then ever when i gave that car to u. with the JDM 2.2 u should be high 14 low 15 AT LEAST. i ran a 15.5 with my h23 no nos just i/h/e along with a FULL tank of gas

    so with 50 more HP this car now has with no nos it can hit WAY beter times then that. and the car is not that heavy. just practise and take it all the way to 7300 man, shift fast and bring them times down

    Try launching at a higher RPM around 4500 on street tires, and yes take it to a higher RPM that car should have no problem hitting low 15s

    Talking Races

    Yo Chowey,
    I'm going camping this weekend so I'm jacked. We should get a crew to hook up during the week or something. I usually play some Beach Volleyball down at Millinium Park so maybe we can hook up there. Lots of parking and its a cool place to chill, watch some volleyball, skaters bailing(kids are tough these days). I want to check up your setup......

    Peace
