1/8th times... dont know what to think....

I ran the 1/8th and my best was 2.3-60', 10.51@65mph.

this was my first time and I am not the best at launches yet, 3 times i squeeled the hell out of my tires.

i dont know what the performance times of a stock FC would be in the 1/8th, only in the quarter. andybody got any idea how this is for a first time dragger?

Thats not bad for the fact that you have next to nothing done to your car. You need a good exhaust if oyu want to run any faster.

COuld be worse though, last tiem I went, there was this all riced out civic, tons of stickers, body kit, rims, HUGE wing, etc. He was running 11.4's and higher..

A friend of mine runs the 1/8th in 8.0 seconds in his B16a powered Honda Civic Hatchback...He has the Jdm Engine..Jdm Type R transmission..I want to smoke him with my Rx-7, but that is probably not possible...I need a clutch and suspension..I will give him a shot soon..Going to pick up my 11 lb vert rims tommorow...Can't wait for that...

If that guy is running a 8.0...you''re going to need some serious forced induction/traction. Thats low 12s high 11s. CJ
