Default Anyone out at the Import Drag Wars on Saturday night? (Phoenix,AZ)

I saw a couple ITRs out there...including a Yellow JRSC ITR...was running 14.7s

Some decent cars out there..the fastest car out was an all-motor CRVTEC powered Civic HB that ran 12.4@107 MPH...it was a full race car though.

For street driven cars..there was another all-motor CRVTEC HB running 13.0 and an Ec;lipse GSX also running 13.0

I think I know the JRSC'ed R, it was Javier. It's all traction issues i believe. Plus maybe some overheating stuff. I dunno, i will get him to reply here to explain what the issues are.

13.87@99 on slicks at sea level with 175/125. I ran 14.265@98 on streets with 170/120 ....... go figure.

I guess the more hp you get, the harder it is to control it with a fwd. That's why I'll stick to all motor.

Where are these drag wars held?
I have a 98 GSR that I'd like to run someday (never been to a drag strip)

Peace

It was at Speedworld Motorplex...yhey probably wont have one again until next year...

...but you can gop oyt to the track every Wednesday or Friday night.
Wednesday is better IMP cause there alot less people so you can get more runs in.

For more info/direction on the track...check out http://www.speedworldmotorplex.com
