it could also be the track. Some tracks have absolutely horrible grip with street tires... im not trying to put blame on the track but seriously-sometimes it is the tracks fault.

Last summer I took my car for the first time... 18.3/18.1 @ ? was horrible... only got a couple of runs but my reaction times were horrible... 1.4 and .8 the second time. Gotta get used to the lights. Anyways I did want to take my car to the track one last time before I convert to 6sp. I have to change my wheels too... ran on 17's and had my subs/amp in my trunk.
My wifes civic used to go to about 1800-2000 RPM. With the turbo i put on there, she would be making 7 psi of boost right there. And she could launch the shit outta that car. She would kick my ass off the line, but i would pass her shortly thereafter.

7thgen civic 13 second club Member #1 13.624 @ 101.887
I have stock 01LX auto...I raced (carbonfly) 02EX manual with aem intake and tanabe exhaust in the 1/8th mile track
He only beat me by like .6 seconds which was like quarter panel length
We ran like 3 times..same thing. His slips are posed in his member ride pics
Wait I was wrong his time was 11.01 and mine was like 11.4. This was like 2 years ago before he had vtch controller and his new fipkn...but still not worth the money

yeah on the street ive tried launching higher and i end up spinning too much but like i said that on the street so next sunday ill try launching at higher rpms at the track and see what happens
u can still launch high on the track and spin the wheels but if your track is good, you will only spin for a second max and then grip and roar like mad. good luck with that your times are impressive
that was my 2nd run...i only ran twice cuz i got there late and there was a shit load of cars amazingly on a wed. the first timeslip i lost but i ran a crappy 17.6
im pretty sure if i made some adjustments with my launch id get lower times...plus i forgot i had my friend in my car plus a good 50 pounds of worthless stuff..*got lazy and was last minute going to the track*
