what i have learned from dragstrips is take your time on take off, don't pay attention to the light. when it's green just take off and concentrate on your take off.. that will make a big difference. r/t doesn't take anything off your 1/4 mile time. but if you want your r/t than take off a little after the last orange light goes off. and before the green seems it's about to turn on.

lol thats some good advice warren :P
if you're really hardcore and want to win a bracket race, you have to compensate for body flex (on bigger cars. i don't think most hondas flex very much) and then if you're on street tires and of course how hard you're launching. but warren is right if you just want to make a good practice run just chill on the light and make sure you get a good launch

---- yeah!!!! I love the real time AWD on the crv's. My dad has one and the car is slow but the real time is dope as hell. Tires spin for less than a second and then your AWD. From what I have heard its just a viscious differential. WOOOOH damn I drink too much

Re:my first time at dragstip with turbo wagon and ghettodyne,,
it has a viscous joint in the driveshaft that allows 3% slippage before it locks up solid. sad is spinning your tires trying to launch! its not for everyone but it works for me. I can run thru a wet intersection at 10 lbs of boost without spinning a tire. it launches like its dry.
