Myself, Big Ben, and Josh(jp314) went down along with a co-worker of mine who has a 95 Civic coupe with a B16 turbo.

Best time I ran was a 13.56@101.44mph. N-1 cams, full 3" exhaust, B15 trans., full interior. My best 60ft. time was this run with a 2.030 and my best mph was 103.98 on another run. I was using 205/50-15 dag radials aired down to 15psi. I was launching at 4k rpms and as the night got colder, I realized I was launching too high. I had better launches at around 3600 rpms. I think I'm going to look into a 2-step launch device. It is nerve-racking trying to get my rpms right and watch the tree at the same time.

Josh took a few videos of my runs and I'll post them soon.
Here is my best timeslip.

Great times! Car seems to be hookin like a bitch off the line. Definately impressive. Looks like you can get a low 13 out of it with a 1.8 60'. Little more track time and you got it.:biggthump

Bro that is some nice drag racing there! I am very impressed with your times. Watching you in a ve "almost" makes me wanna go VE instead of boost on my next project, but I'll stick with boost over neo vvl:tongue:

btw the best was how you smoked that ms3 off the line!:biggthump

Bravo! What kind of clutch setup do you have? And what do you mean by a 2-step launch device?

I use a Centerforce clutch. I've had good luck with them.

2-step will allow me to launch at a set specific rpm so I don't have to try to feather the throttle to the rpm I need to launch at. Makes it a whole lot easier to be ready to go when the tree hits.
