Default IPG All Motor Civic at 2011 IFO Bradenton Event

2nd outing for the car and we are moving in the right direction -- lots of fun to be back at the track racing again

ran a 11.7x @ 117.xx MPH as the best for the weekend

made it through JayWest somehow in the first round and lost to Marc P in the finals

everything went pretty smoothly for the most part

thanks to Tom for helping out with the car this weekend and of course everyone else at the track, makes it enjoyable when everyone gets along so well

here is a quick video of 2 passes from the weekend -- enjoy

CONGRATS James!!! I love how this car looks so much just like a street car and doesnt look like every AllMotor car out there.

Im more then sure that your not getting good 60ft and by looking at your chassic, Your car has 120+ traps easily...

Btw is your car overweight that bad?

Sounds great, are those 24.5s?


edit: Am I seeing things or is there a velocity stack in the video and the pictures show the pw jdm housing? Any reason for switching?

yes, on 24.5s currently

yes, we ran the PWJDM headlight scoop 2 passes and the velocity stack the other passes

when we dyno'ed we used the velocity stack -- before we hit the track for the first time we put the PWJDM headlight scoop in place because it looks a million times better but i was concerned it was costing us power

the switch to the velocity showed an immediate 1.5 mph gain on the next pass but actually went slower on the next pass so no definitive data yet

i am putting the PWJDM headlight scoop back on because it looks way better and once we have the car dialed in to a point that we can have consistent ET's and MPH i will do the test over to the velocity stack again
