first time at the track tonight with this car.
1999 integra LS, stock engine, turbo, AEM EMS car is making approx. 260 WHP at 12psi weighs 2500 lbs without driver, full interior

i load up all my stuff and go down there, only to find out that i forgot my wheel lock so no drag radials for me.. i was stuck using my street tires (Kumho Ecsta supra 712's)
best run of the night was

RT : 1.115
60' : 2.486
330 : 6.584
1/8 : 9.637
MPH : 82.55
1000' : 12.212
1/4 : 14.381
MPH : 104.97

anyone care to analyze this run?

The mph was there, but god those times suck
i really really wish i had brought my wheel lock, those kumho's were absolutely useless until 3rd gear, i tried heating them up, not heating them up, i tried rolling out of the hole, i tried feathering it, but as soon as i got inot it in second gear it would just spin...

good news is that im gonna try again next week
BTW i picked up nearly 2 MPH by taking off my air filter, thats a big difference no?

your MPH are there lower your 60 foot though
wich track did you go cayuga or st thomas?

That's only a mid 13 sec mph isn't it? W/ 260 id expect a little faster?

MotorMatrix.com

mph is good enough for a 13.2-13.4 on drag radials. i went 13.2@105 in my jetta on about 250-260whp.

i run an 8.44 1/8th all motor and that is beating most of the mustangs and scramaros, but i have a turbo setup in the garage as my new project to really turn some heads

13.4 @ 100mph is dead hooking, so I'd think if this car "dead hooked" it still wouldn't break 12's...

= keeping my civic

my stealth's factory weight is about 4000LBS with driver... no one one this board can complain about weight holding them back, hehe...
