Wasn't running on the bottle but she still goes good. Full interior minus backseat/carpet. Running 3 tenths faster in the 384' compared to last year on a really rough tune. I'll post some more video's later.
Could have been 4-5 tenths faster, but had to get on the brakes hard in my first eliminations run. Finished 3rd out of 20-30 cars. I still suck at bracket racing, car is dead constant qualifying and goes all over the map in eliminations.

What was the time??
15.2@89mph 2.171 60ft. 9.830 1/8 R.I.P. "LULU"
That run was a 6.440@63mph... this track is usually a 2 tenths slower than the nearest 1/4 mile track at the 330' mark.
What would have been my fastest pass I had to get on the brakes to not break out.

Nice times, car does look to be hooking up really well...
Which MT tires are those?
12.770 @ 111.99 Intercooled Eaton M62
yea what tires and wheels are those? and where did you get them?
couple things...
whats with the "throttle stop sound" ???? what exactly is that...???
whats with the totally ghetto race track? what they dont think gaurdrail is nessesary? your car is too nice to race on crap like that
hahaha
nice runs man, car sounds and looks mighty healthy, great job on gettin 3rd!
The wheels are bogart, the tires are from Mickey Thompson. I'll be ordering some new M&H slicks and skinnies in the next month or so since the skinnies are DOT approved (the car sees some street duty and swaping tires is never fun) and most M&H is more popular in the Honda world. Karo hooked me up but the setup isnt cheap ($3g-ish).
The throttle stop sound I'm assuming you mean the when staging/pre launch? That would be the MSD DIS-IIs two step feature, I'm leaving the line at 6750 right now with my foot to the floor dumping the clutch, the TG LSD has held up well with 50+ launches at 6500-7000 on slicks.

Watching that vid, you just convinced me to buy a Dis-2. I was on the fence about ordering it, but looks like what I have planned later that I'll need a MSD and HPT.
But any way, that launch was hard, quick, and with that same RPM every time should be consistent. Which is what winning a race is all about.
Post up some more vids please.
Here's another...

Cheers,
Owen

I'll buy parts off it. I just started my Eco swap, so I can't spend anything on a whole new car. My wife would kill me.
Let me know if you need to get rid of anything.
