16.01 Dx
Ok well, took my car to the track today, and ran about 5 times. It was all fun in games but of course I wanted to get my personal best. They weren't giving out timeslips because it was only a 10$ race all night.
So my personal best is a 16.01 (not sure what mph, I had rijowysock in the stands to check it out)
Mods:
Aem CAI
Full custom Cat-back
(removed spare)
17" Konig Verdicts wrapped in nitto 450's
and that's it....i hope I can hit 15's with my kamikaze header

Next time just take a crap beforehand and you can probably hit 15.99. That is impressive with 17s and not so sticky tires.
The ever present question... wheres the slip?

Who cares if he doesn't have a slip or not. He prolly doesn't give a **** if you believe him anyway. He knows what he ran, and that's what matters, not what some punkaszes from this site think. Lxs have been known to run 15s on occasion. DX are lighter with same hp so it's not hard to believe anyway! geez! and 17's with decent tires can really help your launch. I've found that I run about the same with my 14s as with my 17s because the tires on my 17s are so much better.

damn, you guys need to back off. I'm the guy who has the GSR. Club 1320 doesn't give out slips, ever. They have Thursday night which is our Test and Tune. The track conditions were really shitty, as I ran a 15.2 @ 102mph, but I will attribute some of that to it being my first time at the track, but he seriously did run that, it's on a video. He was pretty much out-launching every race, but you know that B-series vtec doesn't mess around
So get off his *** because, yes, he ran it

very impressive ... 16.01 is very good for a dx ... considering the magazine 1/4 mile time is 16.7 for a stock dx/lx. I'm sure given good conditions and a better header, you'll be able to hit 15's

i mean the conditions are always good down here in the winter, considering it was 47* and basically at sea level, next time if the track is sticky I hope to hit high 15's

sadly enough I was just talking to the guy who is "really good with stuff" and he said that since I have a HI*8 I can't do it. I need an actual digital camcorder...guess I know what I will be getting for christmas.
Hey Project 2k2,
I'll stick up for you too....My friends LX (DX) nicest one that isn't vtec is probably high 15's to low low low 16's. He has intake and exhuast with 17's also. I would say u could get into the 16.00 to 15.9X range with just that on a good night. Take my word or not as an outside american car owner.

ok ok, before this gets outa hand, Riley thanks for standing up for me but I think he was asking an honest question. Although with his sig stating a 15.8 qtr. I don't know any reason why he would think otherwise.
Anyways, the next track day like this is December 19th. And I will for sure have a digital camcorder then, just hope I can prove my self again. LoL.
