I'm not trying to pick on anyone or put them down but damn that's slow. There is someone on here that ran a 15.8 bone stock. Your trap speed is ok though. It's all in the driver though. So keep going to the track man. You'll just get better and better. Post your ET after about 10 more runs down the track. I'm sure it will be a lot better. Practice makes perfect.

What elevation are you guys at because where I am I haven't seen one even break into the 16s yet. The track here is about 4000ft above sea level.

lets put this one to rest. who ran 15.8 bone stock? if you are refering to that video that is the worst hack job I've ever seen. the numbers are all mixed up for a stock EX/LX whatever.

If there are more I'd like to know, I'm trying to gather all the info I can to get my LX faster.

2001 LX IDRC OCT runner up (super stock)
AEM CAI
TCS header
2.25 exhaust
UR pullies

Ok first things first, no need for name calling, I hope that we are all adults here....if not so be it. Anyway if yours is the video I'm thinking of it looks like someone video taped it watching a TV, and two kids yelling 15.8!!!

anyway....if that is your civic I call it hacked because there is no way you went 15.8 at 91 ish in a stock civic EX. Every civic I've seen traps around 82-86.... one trapping with a low 90mph is a low 15 second civic. I drag race a lot so I'm no fool to the track...


simple explaination without childish name calling
