Rep Power: 0 I also don't understand how the times conflict....also how are you making a video from 3 days ago...i know you could of taped it when you did it but it just seems convient that when someone disagrees you say, well I can get a tape...if you ran it good for you..if not oh well its just an N/A Civic

Rep Power: 0 with that 60' time I call BS on the stock part. a later gear nitrous activation would explain the difference between the 60' and the ET on an otherwise stock or near stock EX. Either that or its just all bogus and or screwed (as was the MPH)

Rep Power: 0 Something isn't right here. Let the guy get some more proof up here. I don't think he would go through all this trouble to lie, I just think there are some factors we are not aware of.
He said he would post more info.....let see what the garden grows.......

What tires are you running on?? If they are the stock Firestones then it is BS becuase there is no way you can get a good launch with those crap tires. I spin my tires so easily it gets annoying sometimes.

Rep Power: 0 its not that he ran a 15.8 I dont give a flying fuck. Im saying that with his 60' time, unless he was spraying, or had some major power enhancments and NO traction for the first 2 gears, that time is bullshit. Simply put, either its not stock, or with that 60' time no way he hit a 15.8. deal.

Rep Power: 0 Damn guys, what more do you want? You wanted a time slip, he posted it. You wanted a video, he posted it. You can call me a mag racer if you want, but if Edmonds and C&D both got 16.2 for a stock EX, then why is it so hard to believe that he shaved a little less than 4 tenths off that time? Come on guys, give him props, not hell...

Rep Power: 0 hey, the timers were probably outta whack! that would explain the 918 MPH trap speed. Was your car gutted out? Or was it full int, LX bone stock? I dont believe it, I had better 60's than that, and only ran 16.2's stock...and I have VTEC. What track was this at? What is the altitude??
You cant post this shiz and not expect people to wave the BS flag in your face...you have to be able to back something like this up.
