So I ran 17.62 @ 76.58 mph bone stock. I heard Adam ran 17.56 with I/H/E and his RPF1`s so I did pretty decent overall.

Jon only got 1 run in and he ran slower 18.2 @ 74mph.

Fun night especially in the twisties at the end of the quarter mile on the way back

If the weather holds Im at the track on both nights Jon but if we drag again that would be the last time for my car as I don`t plan to make it into a race car anytime soon.

Also my stock suspension is way too soft for auto x so we would both have to drive your car at those events in September if you are ok with that

Sounds like you guys had fun! I will have to give it a try one of these days, would be nice if they run the AutoX as well so you can do both events on the same night.

Are they even running AutoX anymore at Race City, I have heard rumors the track is beaten up pretty good.

lol, it is 4:45am right now I went hiking yesterday and fell asleep almost as soon as I got home. Now I can't sleep!!! Ahhhhhhhhh

I think they might have a couple more before the season is over but they mostly use it for oval practice and some movie projections in the back parking lot so they don't want the noise I guess..

It's not running this week but who knows for next week.

4 door 1997 civic with a jdm accord f20b sir motor previous best 15.6 from owner. I ran 15.3

2 door 1993 civic with b16a2 sir previous best was 15.93 by owner. I ran 15.72 and hit the rev limiter at the top of second for a bit

How about an SSM fit for a project car lol

Everything runs great, car feels like it picks up quicker and that SS you guys put in feels pretty slick! Thanks again! Looking forward to the Dyno day.

Quick question, how do I reset the oil percentage

oh yeah... sorry bud

Put the key to the acc position (2 clicks but engine off)

put your screen on remaining oil life, then hold down for about 30 seconds, it will flash. let go and press again holding about another 30 secs and it should go back up to 100%.
