SiR CRX vs. 7thgen Boosted

So ok, I have a friend that wanted to race me... he's got a CRX gutted with SiR engine, NA light mods i/h/e, MSD ignition wire, Si wheels and tires... he ran constant high 14's at the track... we are going to race tonight, and I already told him that he will walk on me, easy... we have the same driving experience... <<<crappy as hell! but I think he would pull on me coz he's about 1000lbs lighter... do I stand a chance?

You Sunday off right? the 13th? THis is the 1st time we've ran at Sam Boyd stadium in a couple of years... should be fun. We'll be in the South east lot, and you'll enter at Gate 2.

any way... Its been a while since you've ran with us, print this and bring it.

http://www.lvrscca.org/news/2005/SCCA_flyer.pdf

Call me if you need directions... I'll be there around 6:30 Setting up.

Tech/registration opens at 7:30 and closes at 8:30... So be there between then. :P

well after you race him, let us know what happened.

you've got the torque, he's got the weight advantage

if you launch good you could take him thru the first 2 gears, I think in the middle of third he will pass you

just guessin

couple qestions...

why would you or anyeone in there right mind run 8lbs on a N/a motor and not tune it? thats plain goofy and asking for trouble..

and 2. when you race, they giv you numbers... 2 numbers. both important as the other. time and trap speed. knowing your time is not a lot of info when you dont know there trap...

a 13.5@98 is totally differnt than 13.5@108.....

get both numbers when you talk to someone about what they ran...

dude! just to let you know, since day1 boosted, i've been calling and doing everything I can to get it tuned... now if I only live in Cali where THERE'S MORE THAN 1 dyno tuning place to go to, then I could've gotten it tuned right away...

13.5 = 13.5
You run 13.5, I run 13.4 I win!
Reaction time is a different story.
