I took my b16 honda civic out to the track for the first time ever... I mean, the VERY first time I have ever been to a track, ever!!... lol... but yeah... I hit a GRABAGE 15.1 at 92 mph.... with a full tank of gas, shi++y tires, and me beaing a track virgin...... is that a pretty good time for what I have in the car?

b16a, type r intake manifold and throttle body, obd1, DC headers, AEM intake, HKS exaust, ACT clutch, full energy suspesion master kit, solid motormounts, AEM FPR, and a short shifter... in an 88 civic DX hatch

that's decent for your first time ever. keep practicing and you should be in the 14's

thats what I am hoping for.... how big of a difference do you think it would make with some new tires... the car just peels out donw the track.... how should I launch? any tips? RPM?

Tires will make a world of difference depending on what tire you have now.

are you at sea level?

yes.. well, about 30-50 fit above.... and I have bald ass garbage tires.... I want to get some more kumho ecstas... those are bomb tires for the price... you think I will hit that 14.8 at least with the new tires?

what was your 60' time?

60 foot time, not 0-60. Should be 2.5-2.6sec, something like that. Not a bad time though. Bald tires will actually help you, but with all of those mods you should be looking ~150whp and into the 14's.

Hmm, well I dont' feel so bad about my times now. A big bad dual cam swap in the 15's.

Rock the D.

Aren't bald tires good for the race track? I know that all the dragsters run slicks.
