Between 3500 to 4k I dump the clutch smooth but fast and then hit the gas when the tires start to hook. 2.2s 60' on all-seasons is my average (and best).

B16, CRX, not a lot of mods.

h22 integ running on dot drag tires dumped at 4000 had to feather a lil - lot depending on how much vht was on the track. stage 3 clutch while it lasted... basic bolt on's...100 shot after the 60 foot mark nailed the rest of the way to the traps...
