Doubt it, even with a boosted motor in a crv he still wouldn't be quick enough.

I ran 12.9 in my vette with just exhaust, 2000 auto

Damn 2.4X 60 ft is atrocious haha

With some seat time and sticky tires you will be hitting mid to low 12's easy.

What I ran in my basically stock 2002 with shitty hankooks on a brutal track prep. I would have expected a bunch of other mods before you jumped to the 100 shot lol.

well i dont wana throw any money at it unless i have serious money to throw at it. I think the nitrous is great bang for the buck until i have serious money, with dag radials and a lil extra pep i might just be happy until then :)

I was pit crew on a civic than ran high 10's with 6500 invested. You guys are doing it wrong.

That's a bit outrageous. My CRV used to make STi's run for their money. STI's run 13's stock, no?

No. Well, depends on the year.

You do realize 1 car length at around 100mph trap is about 3 tenths right? If you were at their back bumper you could be in the low 14's.


He has almost a full second to gain by getting the 60 foot time down to 2.0. That is about where it should be with street tires and a good driver. That puts him in the mid 12's. He has another 3-4 tenths and 5-6mph to gain from better shifting.




Oh wait, you crewed on a car that ran 10's. Serious bizness. It didn't have street tires on it either did it? Big difference. I 60ft 1.9-2.0 in f-bodies on a hard tire. Bolt on a drag radial and i can go 1.7's. This is on stock suspension with no other changes. That is 6 tenths difference in the 1/4.

When comparing money spent vs track times why would it matter if it has street tires or not? 6500 vs 20000 rofl

Clearly his street strip civic is a C5 Z06.


Clearly.


Way to ignore the rest of my post. You really don't know anything about drag racing.
