IT HAS A LOT OF POWER, and its addicting biggrin.gif bowdown.gif THe beautiful 3SGTE gives out a lot of power that a FWD celi cant handle. ITs hard to get any traction. All i do it spinn forever, hardly ever move.

I went to the track this passed saturday, the 25th. It was not a good day for me...

well i guess ill just put the times and stuff up and you guys be the judge. Just to LET you know i was running w/ KUHMO 711 tires w/ 17's. I should of been in the 13's like everyone says.
BAD START
1st - r/t = 1.036, 1/4 = 15.873 vs early 90's RX-7 r/t = 1.276 1/4 = 28.288 haha thumbsdown.gif

2nd - r/t = 1.004, 1/4 = 16.518 vs 97+ HONDA Accord r/t = 1.288 1/4 = 16.886

gets even worse
3rd - r/t = 1.242, 1/4 = 16.812, thumbsdown.gif (ok here i was ready to go home) lost to a Type R, 1/4 = 14.778

JUST WHEN I HOPED THINGS WOULDNT GET ANY WORSE... cwm13.gif
4th - r/t = 1.146, 1/4 = 14.234 biggrin.gif vs 97+ neon r/t = .824, 1/4 = 14.369

THere was a long break for about 2+ hours for the other categories run, so i went to go celebrate. then we started for another run.

5th - r/t = 1.186, 1/4 = 15.666 frown.gif vs Don't remember what i ran here...

another BREAK... I walked around the show area and i heard the anouncers say that the one of the tire boths was LENDING OUT DRAG TIRES AND RIMS!!!! Sweet so i went to go borrow a pair (Had to leave a credit card and my D.L ).

6th - r/t = .975, 1/4 = 14.629, vs Mazda Miata r/t = .629, 1/4 = 16.098

7th - r/t = .800, 1/4 = 14.395 vs 00+ MR2 spyder r/t = .661, 1/4 = 16.133

8th and final - r/t = .833, 1/4 = 14.320 vs 92 (+/-) INTEGRA GS-r, r/t = 1.235, 1/4 = 16.126 hahahaha owned.gif
Im not sure but i think i later saw this same integra and the R was actually a STICKER cwm13.gif Just like a honda owner thumbsdown.gif

Well i was kinda satisfied, by the end of the day, but NOT happy.

Feel free to say what you want, i know i did bad.. frown.gif thumbsdown.gif frown.gif

David

oh btw- i also got a free dyno, the i got 226hp at the wheel. I guess that isn't good. My times should be lower w/ those #'s
