Rep Power: 312 my day at the drap strip
well me and some friends went to the strip saturday afternoon i wasnt running well my best time of the day was 18.3 when i have ran 18.1's with no problem oh well. but i did pull off my best reaction time EVER! i pulled off a 0.01 then after that i kept red lighting trying to get a perfect light i was kinda sour cause after yesterday i had never red lighted....oh and u can ask any of my friends i always have really good reaction times. i beat 95% of people off the line.
and also i weighed my car just out of sheer curiosity
my 03 civic ex sedan weighed in at 2990 with me in it (i know im a fat boy, im on my race diet now lol) and yes i do have subs 2.
my worst run of the day was a 19.0 flat like i said i just wasnt on it the weather was funky and my car wasnt running like it should plus i have my steelies on with toyo proxes tpt's on em sized 195/55/15 versus my 17's that had goodyear eagle ultras on em sized 205/40/17 (i think thats the name of em, they are the tires right under the RS-A's) i will post up my time slips 2morrow cause they are in my glovebox and i dont feel like gettin em right now.

Rep Power: 237 I don't think I could take my Vic to the track.Not at least till there is some NOS in there.I don't think I could live it down.
1st time I was at the track ran a 13.9 and been faster then that ever since,but if I could lay down a 14.5 in my Vic I'd be happy
