Ahh that sucks...in that case you should learn to heel-toe, at least for that track...

You have to be able to have the clutch in then hold the brake with your heel, and rev up with your toe, or vice versa. Tough in a prelude, but it will help your launch.

On a flat surface your times would be fine I guess

i've run 2.3 60 foots on 400 treadwear tires. so tires are only a factor so much with a street car that is modded with just bolt-ons.
you should be in the 2.2-2.3 60 foot area.

the only way to get it down is to practice. practice at the strip and on the street.

that 1/8th time has to be in the 9's.
