So I my 2001 Honda Civic EX to the local drag track when it was stock and it ran at about 17.6 in a 1/4.

Since then I added a few things to the car such as a:
~Cool Air Intake
~2 1/4 inch Catback Exhast

With those few things added I ran at a 16.5 in a 1/4

good...bad?

Nice improvement man!

What was the weather like on both nights, pretty consistent with each other? Do you feel that you drove better this time? Any significant change in your 60ft time?

I just go to the track for fun. I mean I like to see good numbers come out of out but its really that that big of a deal.
I'm working on more of a nice car that runs good, sounds good (engine and audio), and of course looks good..nothing more.

But yea proof right there with that .098 R/T video games do help you in other things!
