Re: (beseman)
yea, that's pretty damn slow. i take it you're in new mexico so i'd partially blame the hot weather. maybe your motor is just in need of a tune up.

Re: (AzntaggeR)
Albuquerque is abour 5000 ft above sea level.
motor is in perfect running condition. had that checked out like 2 weeks prior to saturday night.
reaction was like a .437 ill try and post the time slip
I read on the internet that a stock civic should run a 16.7 but i am almost 2 seconds short of that...
any ideas would be greatly appreciated
it is a 5 speed

At Roswell (3700ft) it converts to a 17.3
At (5100) it converts to a 17.09
You need to work on your driving. At about 2700-3000ft I ran a 17.2 stock and at sea level I ran a 16.7 (Capitol raceway) with 106 dx motor
Most likely you ran in the heat so take off a tenth for every ten degrees above 60* and thats what you can expect with better weather and if your launch sucked you can generally take .15 off for every .1 you shave off you 60ft times
Good luck and practice
