Default 10.2 @ 153mph

1 year project finally done: 94 Civic Coupe, full interior, stereo system, street driven, full exhaust, insured, registered.. Recent trip to Import Face Off in Shreveport 3/25/07 ran 10.2 @ 153 mph. Spinning an old pair of Mickey Thompson all through 3rd gear. There's plenty more potential left in it but due to traction issue that day we could not run the full amount of boost that the car is capable of. Got some new MT 24.5 X 9 already mounted and balanced. Stay tune

Very nice And yes you were spinning the tires past half track.

What turbo are you running? I was so busy between rounds at ifo that i never got a chance to come over and check the car out.

Congrats Phong, nice to see another car at the track!

Might want to raise that cross bar on the cage, looks a little low. Can't be less than 4" below your shoulders, it'll hurt you if you crash the car.

I have video of the 10.3 pass, but from the back. I'll try to get it online today.


Like was already mentioned, Phong has been around for a long time. Good to see Redline at the track again.

Also, that car is picture perfect what a SFWD car should look like, inside and out. Makes our car look like a bucket on wheels.

I follow the same philosophy that was said above... this is a true SFWD street car.

153, rollin' out!

Congratulations. Hard work paid off.
