okay this is how i prepare for the race....goto the pits with my team....oh yeah i drive a gsr but bring close to type R times...with lil mods

take out spare tire, backseats, front passenger...but first i clean my car before the race....dirt weighs too much!

check everything hoses ect....just too look like im fiddling with sumthing...but nothing usually is wrong...let the car cool before time trials....cause i usually have bad times cause i run right away after i get there and take out all my stuff...

on my toyo fz4 205/50/15's i have @ 18-22psi once i used 28psi i did just fine too...higher trap speed there...

if u know ur car and tires...then u know where to launch and how it grips...
rev to around 4 and feather ur clutch til u get traction and Go VTEC!

oh yeah talk to all the other racers and have fun.....its a learning experience....u'll get hooked ..well i am!
