I agree. However, hitting a cone is much easier on the car than over shooting a corner. Plus it teaches you to follow "the line". Just passing on what I've heard. Since I have yet to do either one, I can't speak too intelligently.

I'm already thinking of selling that red thing and finding one with a manual that actually runs.

drag racing is a lot more than 'going straight'.


if he had a car with any sort of power, he would understand that steering the car straight after hitting the 100shot direct port in second gear after the 8k launch on slicks is very hard and violent.

or hooking an allmotor car at 8k, spinning the tires until the tach reads 10k, then them hooking and trying not to bog back down to 7k. and after the 7k hook, trying to shift it again at 8500 without missing a beat.

but his "honest" opinion counts, right? stick to spray painted parts kiddo.

that isnt an opinion when youve never done it.


thats your theory. you have a lot of those, and most of them are wrong. you're on a site called honda-tech. yet, you know none of the tech.

I used a liquid metal sealer along with a liquid metal filler so it doesn't crack in the future

Later on I will remove the wing and bond the edges of the wing together so it looks to be one piece.

Lol. I'm suprised that wing doesn't mount like stock. I wouldn't put something that expensive on with an adhesive.

Take a pic. of that wing straight on from behind when you get time. I just realized it mounts over the factory wing. I've only seen one mounted in person, but never paid attention to it.
