My local track is only 1/8 mile.

Well we went, 2 turbo RSX's, Mach 1, GST, and myself.

RSX's, both on street tires, running in the mid to low 9's at around 78-81 mph.

Mach has an intake and an X pipe, went 8.77@80.

GST is basically my car but FWD, believed to have some boost leaks and crap street tires went 9.3@85.

Finally my POS. I guess I made too much fun of Monster because I fell victim to his curse of not being able to launch when I got there.

1st Run, pump gas, 18psi, 5k stutter

60'-2.21
1/8-8.56
MPH-86.5

Impressed with the MPH, pissed about the 60' and resulting ET. Car went [email protected] last year on race gas at BMP.

2nd run, 5 gallons of C16, 23ish psi falling to 18 at shift, 5250 stutter

60'-2.14
1/8-8.42
MPH-87.79

Still bogging on the launch, figure I'll give it one more go at 5250 and slip the clutch a little more.

3rd run,Same as above.

60'-2.13
1/8-8.41
MPH-87.82

No change. Park the car and get something to eat. MPH is there but the launch isn't. I'm a little disappointed but glad my traps are decent. Up the stutter one more time and make another pass.

4th run, C16, 23ish falling fast, 5500 stutter

60'-1.68
1/8-7.84
MPH-88.90

w00t!!!1 Car did exactly what I wanted it to and I figure it's not worth breaking something to try and better it. Watch some more runs, super clean Foxbody GT that Mike SVO would love, tried to take a pic on my phone but it didn't come out. It was a good night and I think I've done what I wanted on the 16g, time to move on.
