My camera doesn't have sound so I dubbed in another civic running the 0-90, so as far as shifting early, not really I shifted at 6,100 where the hp peaks. I had lots of wheel hop and my tires are garbage, plus it was just for fun. Drag racing isn't for me anyway, I much prefer autocross, but it was a great experience.

17.32@80.92mph, certainly would appear to be 'granny shifting'.
