well.. its funny to say that i kicked her out, cause i did. i was like... c'mon, you know you want to watch...

but it was a good night, i ran the 14.0 during the day
outside temp. approx. 75

when i ran the 13.8
approx. temp 65

but, each time I was getting better and better with launching and handling the wheel spin
the first run the dam rearview mirror fell off..

i wish i would have had the digi camera, there were a few cars from columbus (some srt-4s, a few guys from slow motion, some toledo friends)

it was a good night.

oh and as for the estimated weight of the gf, 108 (soaking wet)... hmm, that might be a good pic for the avatar....

Not too bad. Are those 60ft's on DOT legal tires?

those are on yokohama.... they have a V pattern.

they are a summer street tire, not a drag radial, or slick

i should be able to do better, because the 60' is all first gear, and i am having spinning problems all through 1st.

i will get the name of the tires when i get back from eating..

well the 60fts are pretty normal for a turbo civic on street tires, but youre pulling good ets for street tires mang esp at 8 psi

ya, the 60's are the 'average' driver's 60' times. i have seen people pull 2.0 on streets.. that is my goal. it will require some practice.

i figure if i can do that, and keep the spinning to a minimal, i should be able to pull a higher e.t.

as for the question about the tires they are yokohama avs100
