OK here's the deal: My friend's fully built LS/VTEC -11.5:1 Pistons forged, Ported/3 Angle Head work and fully gutted car except the front two seats. Spraying 100-150 Shot on Slicks.
VS.
My GS-T: fully built 6 bolt motor w/ported head, 272's, Dyno tuned DSMLink, all the supporting mods, w/75 shot on Falken Azenis 225/45/17. My car is also Weight Lost: no bumper beams, carbon hood, and from the front seats to the back fully gutted. YES i have LSD!!
 
What kind of turbo do you have ?
 
if he is on slicks he will win hands down in a steet race but, if this is a quater mile you should be able to catch him in the long run. If you wanna absolute win get some drag radials or even better slicks:dsm:

Falken Azenis Tires are pretty much drag radials. They aren't Nitto 555R's but they hook like a mutha'. But trust me the civic is hella light and with the slicks and the 100+ shot he'll take you. Sorry:(
 
OK got the message just bought BFGoodrich gForce T/A Drag radials along with lightweight 15" rims :D Spent $439.99 just to win this race. Also i am breaking in the 125 shot in my car also. I have to say right now with race fuel my car pulls like a mutha. Do you think the Honda will get the traction on his 100+ shot, he has no LSD. Don't like relying on N20 to win races but if you guys think this Honda will take my Beast without it then so be it, I am gonna be button happy :cool: Thanks for the advice and i will try to tape this race and post it IF I CAN!!!!

Yes, Thats what I said, But how many people use them effectively for drag racing? Alot of people! :dsm:
