Default 16.3 with no vtec......

Yeah, went to PIR last night which is a horrible track for the 1/4 but we were bored. Before my second run of the night they stopped racing for about an hour while they cleaned something off the track. Didn't even think about it but when it came time to run my car wasn't all the way warmed up yet and ran with no vtec. Thought it was kind of funny.

Me in the far lane on last run of the night, where to my surprise when I went for 3rd there was a bottle of coke someone left in the cup holder which prevented this much needed shift.

Must of been extremely cold.... because it takes my SI about 3 or 4 hours to cool down fully when its heated up.... hm..... and i still have vtec when its fully cooled... I ran the same time with vtec... it was about 90degrees... hopped half way down the track and hit fuel cut off twice... It's still so new for me to rev to 8g..... not used to it yet

Like a 15.2 or something. Not very good for a modded GSX that left me in the dust off the line. I still ran a 16.6 this run having to try for 3rd 3 times before finally realizing there was a coke bottle in the way of the shifter.

LOL. Sounds like your a really experienced drag racer from your tales. lol

Still, 16.3 ain't bad for no VTEC and a mis-shift.
