    Don't forget, Commerce sucks so the normal times you see a "stock 5spd" run isn't the normal times you'd see it run at Commerce. But, Commerce is the only place I've run folks (not much into running on the street) to compare against. Hence the reason I asked if you ran there in the first place.

    Stock 3rd gen Preludes (what I'm very familiar with) run low to mid 16's stock but at Commerce you would be lucky to get mid to high 16's with a few bolt ons.

    All my opinion though. I'd suspect you run high 14's (no disrespect...Commerce is just that bad!) with Kevin at a good mid 14 (I've seen typical 1 second reductions in the 1/4 w/ a 75 shot).

    All this aside, we should all meet up at Commerce for one more go at it this season. I need to see mid 14's before the years over! Trap speed is there if I could just get any kind of a decent dig out of this Lude!
    I used to own a 5-speed Maxima and I ran 14.9 @ Commerce in 100+ degree heat with only CAI, Y-pipe and exhaust.

    Edit: and going from a car that could run a 14.9 in poor conditions to a car that's best time has been a 16.3 in perfect conditions is one hell of a change.
