My best is 9.357 in my Eg/GSR with 16" Rota C8's. People are going to swear you should be in the 8's with a GSR, but I've yet to see one in person do it.

As a matter of fact, 2 of my buddies have Eg/GSR's and the best time by both are 9.5 each.

That 1/8 mile time is pretty close to a high 14 second 1/4 mile time which is what most gs-r integras run.

Nope!

My buddy has a Eg/GSR sedan and has hit 9.5 once. Keep trying and you'll get lower. My other buddy has a 92 Cx/GSR that hit the 9.5 as well. When you beat 9.357 school me on how to drive

What / how do you launch?

2.418 is kind of high. My average is 2.3-2.4 and peeps say it's high I've got some drag radials now that I'll be testing out Dec. 5th

You either had a lot of wheel hop or tire spin. That's too high of a launch on street tires. Try 2,500
