Default New personal best!! Tell me what you think

I just got back from Sonoma and today was a good day for me. I set a new personal best in E.T and in 60ft. I have the slip for my best time(could've been better launched to high) and my new best 60ft. was a 1.906 and hit two more 1.9x's today also. Tell me what you think?

what size slick are you running? you should easily pull 1.8's with your setup.

I'm running 22x9x13 slicks on stockers...need some M&H 22x8x13 and rims bad.
Found out that the slicks the shop sold me are actually auto-x slicks so that's why I've had such a hard time getting my 60ft's down.

Way to windy but JJ's car was good. I'm going to start trying to get more sponsors so I can make it to more of the races so hope to see you around. Congrats again to JJ on his win.
I ran good all weekend every run was between 13.46 and 13.83 but that damn light.

I saw you there and meant to say wassup but i didn't have the chance to. I was pitted pretty close to you. Maybe you saw my car Charcoal colored 93 civic HB with no passenger headlight & rear bumper, gun metal Lenso's in front and HX wheels in the back. I saw you hit your 13.4 pass Are you running ZEX? I use to have a 91 hatch with B16a motor and tried both ZEX and NX wet. I noticed that the NX pulled alot harder.

Yeah I'm running the Zex dry kit and plan on switching to the NX direct port system for that exact reason. The Zex dry 75 shot only gets me 55hp at the wheels where as the NX kit will get me 80 at the wheels. Big difference. Yeah I saw your car and actually was wondering how much of a difference taking the bumper off makes?

Just out of Curiosity what do you drive? do you trailer your 11 sec. car? People trailer their cars in fear that they might break and not have a way to get the car home, a tow truck maybe but who wants that F*ucking bill to pay i don't. I do a honda because it is all power to wieght ratio and traction when a 500WHP front wheel drive car hooks up on slicks it will driver willing run 10's. And i wouldn't say domestics are cheaper a for 5.0 and for god sakes a 4.6 is pretty damn expensive i say to put 500 to the ground on either car it will prolly take about the same amount of money if you know what your doing.
you can't tell me you bolt on headers, carb, intake, exhaust and all the other bolt ons you will put 500 to the ground and that right there is a good amount of money my friend with his S-10 with a 383 stroker motor in it has put a great deal in the motor alone now he has to do the tranny, rear, and shaft yada yada yada. When you get right down to it they both run out to about the same give or take ya know and if the car is a "race" car you will break stuff at the track cuz you beat the **** out of it because that is what you like to do.

I have nothing agianst domestics my father had a 68 javlin racecar, he has had chevelles, novas, camaros all that stuff and has a 23 T Bucket roadster now and i love domestics it just ain't my thing at this point in time. You domestics guys should be flattered that we are taking your ideas and using them IE:Big motor Small car.
thats all for now
