wish I had some real tire so I could've gone faster, wish I didn't have a speed limiter so I could've gone faster... I'm kinda at a brick wall at the moment. Until I accomplish those two things.

a third would be to upgrade the fuel pump so i can safely turn up the boost without worrying about the fuel

some pics in that thread.

the second page has more pics ...

if anybody's wondering yes it is being cleaned up underneath there... there are a lot less wires hanging around.. have no fear... the car is VERY potent.

raising the bar?! hehe... I'm still working on tuning the car. That night at the track was done with a late night tuning session the night before on the highway...

so once tuning is done, what kind of numbers do you expect?

I was just looking at your slips again

Great times, no doubt, but hit the gas on the 3rd amber and you'll be unbeatable :thumb:

remember that was the first time i have been on a track in over a year and a half, i only had three passes. Also Autocross tires aren't exactly the best for drag racing, they're sticky as all hell but the sidewall is extremely stiff... I did have a number of factors against me.

I went out to the track thinking I was going to hit only a 14.5 or something, which I would have been very proud of considering the car isn't where it should be and neither am I driver wise.

The first car I lined up against was an s2000, my next run was against a brand new mustang gt w/ some mods, and the other run the civic wouldn't even line up with me.

and yes the car does spit flames.
