* Full Weight EE Wagovan / LS Tranny(fail)
* Mild B20V EK hatch / Slight Diet / B16 Tranny(yummy)
This is my buddy Red in St. Louis. I won by a 1/4 car or a tad bit more - he got a SLIGHT jump (not enuff to where I aborted though). Kool guys out there in STL to hang with.
I now have JDM B16 tranny w/ LSD since this run and some more "stuff" :ninja: You can see how violent my 1 -2 shift is by looking at the headlights --- the lights would have you think that I got a good hook into 2nd but 2nd gear and traction in the Fagovan do not go together - LOL. Proper stickies are on the way (street tires tho - this is my daily this week - lol)
We actually both have nitrous cars - so motor runs are just to dick around with out of boredom. My schedule puts me in STL again in a few weeks and we are doing nitrous pulls this time. I told him I felt like he bumped the button to reel me back in at the top of 3rd - but going into 4th I pulled back away. He says he didn't so I left it at that. Yeah yeah yeah 3rd gear IS the worst gear on that shit box tranny I had - lol, but it was just interesting that he found a lurch when I was around 8200 rpms where I make good power. Not bad for a classic VTEC vs NON-VTEC run.
