lmfao, so is it the ferrari u didn't take it out of 2nd?

Or a DX? Or an LX?

Mods? Car? MOdel? Year? Engine?

These are important factors when judging whether the car ran a good ET or not...Hate to say it to all these Honda lovers but a mclauren F1 isn't in the same drag category as a honda civic...Sorry O.o

G2 tell us what ur runnin bro..

You should be in the low 14's high 13's.

Musta had a bad launch.

This sunday i'm going to the track for the first time too.

I hope i can pull a high 13 sec pass in my itr power eg hatch.

yea 2.4 60ft is horrible. my nerves were making my launch horrible. i think ill need to get a 2step programmed into my chip next time so i dont have to worry about revving to the right rpm.

Your 60ft. killed your time but heres a comparison a stock gsr in a 92 hatch with the back seats out on street tires in ga. ran 14.0 at 100 with a 2.1 60ft. He did have a dc sports header and ebay exhaust with ebay intake so a little more than stock but thats it with a ls tranny. So I think you can do better but what all do you have on the car like everyone else is saying?

Even with a 2.4 60', it seems theres something else other than the launch. Shifting, car weight, untuned fuel map (that phearable ecu is probably worst than stock), etc.

yeah ill have to get a real crome tune.

my 97mph was consistent in all 3 runs. is that low for a itr eg hatch?

ill have to start practicing my launches to see my sweet spot. i think i might have been revving to high at 3500-4k while riding the clutch with wheel spin, no hopping though.
