IT HAS A LOT OF POWER, and its addicting
  THe beautiful 3SGTE gives out a lot of power that a FWD celi cant handle. ITs hard to get any traction. All i do it spinn forever, hardly ever move.I went to the track this passed saturday, the 25th. It was not a good day for me... well i guess ill just put the times and stuff up and you guys be the judge. Just to LET you know i was running w/ KUHMO 711 tires w/ 17's. I should of been in the 13's like everyone says. BAD START 1st - r/t = 1.036, 1/4 = 15.873 vs early 90's RX-7 r/t = 1.276 1/4 = 28.288 haha  2nd - r/t = 1.004, 1/4 = 16.518 vs 97+ HONDA Accord r/t = 1.288 1/4 = 16.886 gets even worse 3rd - r/t = 1.242, 1/4 = 16.812, (ok here i was ready to go home) lost to a Type R, 1/4 = 14.778JUST WHEN I HOPED THINGS WOULDNT GET ANY WORSE...  4th - r/t = 1.146, 1/4 = 14.234 vs 97+ neon r/t = .824, 1/4 = 14.369THere was a long break for about 2+ hours for the other categories run, so i went to go celebrate. then we started for another run. 5th - r/t = 1.186, 1/4 = 15.666  vs Don't remember what i ran here...another BREAK... I walked around the show area and i heard the anouncers say that the one of the tire boths was LENDING OUT DRAG TIRES AND RIMS!!!! Sweet so i went to go borrow a pair (Had to leave a credit card and my D.L ). 6th - r/t = .975, 1/4 = 14.629, vs Mazda Miata r/t = .629, 1/4 = 16.098 7th - r/t = .800, 1/4 = 14.395 vs 00+ MR2 spyder r/t = .661, 1/4 = 16.133 8th and final - r/t = .833, 1/4 = 14.320 vs 92 (+/-) INTEGRA GS-r, r/t = 1.235, 1/4 = 16.126 hahahaha  Im not sure but i think i later saw this same integra and the R was actually a STICKER Just like a honda owner Well i was kinda satisfied, by the end of the day, but NOT happy. Feel free to say what you want, i know i did bad.. David oh btw- i also got a free dyno, the i got 226hp at the wheel. I guess that isn't good. My times should be lower w/ those #'s |

TRY DRIVING THAT SUCKER! David's car is very very good looking, even though its beat to hell, lots of scratches, tape over the holes where the wing use to be, and the GT4 hood and bumper are only primered black... it still manages to look awesome! And driving it... there really is not a way to explain it! I love driving my celi, but adding 120hp to that is just amazing! |
