    ran at the dsm/evo shootout

    Since they let anyone test this year, i did a pass with my car. 91 lx, cold air intake, 4-2-1 header. My r/t was bad because they were running pro tree and i practiced on sportsman. I also didnt lock up the torque converter, which would have helped the start not be so sluggish. Here are some of the other numbers, if anyone has any tips/tricks on how i can improve driving wise, i'd appreciate it!

    R/T- .478
    60'- 2.875
    330- 7.717
    1/8- 11.665
    MPH- 62.42
    1000- 15.058
    1/4- 17.909
    MPH- 79.47
    Cars:
    91 Accord LX Sedan (sold)
    98 Accord LX Sedan
    95 Eagle Talon TSI AWD (E3 16G, PTE 780cc, Godspeed FMIC)

      I was there as well. If they were letting anyone run, I shoulda brought out the teggy.

            aww man i should have posted to see if anyone else was going, I would have said hi. I went with Club Ft Wayne DSM. I was also reading on some techniques, so next time i'll apply the brakes, shift to neutral, push harder and shift back to drive. I'd shift it manually but i dont really have three hands (i have hand controls). I dont know if my friend got any new pics, but as soon as they're up i'll link that and the video into my MR thread.

            Fuck you dude, this was the first time i've ever been on a real track in a real car. I'm not some wannabe professional race driver or something who claims that i'm good and my car is fast, i wanted to do a pass to see how the car would behave/if it would explode in a drag pass. I'm doing a bit of maintenence, bit of research, and i'll go back soon to give it another try.

                  Whatever you do, DO NOT rev it in neutral, then slam it into drive. You'll ruin your transmission that way.

                    Yeah that's not what i meant, i meant to get more braking power so it doesnt creep forward when i'm loading up the torque converter. I know neutral drops=BAD
