HAHAHAHA Listen To This Guy Ok I was checking on something for my dads truck (on a dodge truck forum) and came across a thread about posi and limited slips and this guy posted this about his buddies car
Then I told him thats a horrible time to be trapping at 153 mph and if he has a time slip and heres the response...
LOL then I continued to tell him that I don't even think its possible to run a time like that with a 153 trap speed and how 700whp evos aren't trapping that and if he at least have a vid of the car and his response...
WTF 11.30 at 153, that mph is about a low 9 sec pass isn't it?
Sorry for the pointless post, but I found it humorious
My buddy he is going to put my new gears in. He said pay someone to do the locker. He built a mitsubishi eclipse that ran 153pmh at 11.30 with 28 lbs of boost.
Its a front wheel drive car he said he had a posi lock in it and it would snap the wheel out of his hands.
NAh he totaled the car I think. It was a few yr ago. Evos are all wheel drive not front wheel drive. His was a front wheel drive. I'll have to see if he has any slips
Sorry for the pointless post, but I found it humorious

I know a guy that races a Civic at our local track, he doesn't like leaving too hard on boost because he runs stock trannys & blew up at least 5 in the past yr. or so, now the other guy that drves the car leaves pretty hard with it, the car traps 144-146 on most runs (traction limited), i've seen it go 12.2s too 11.4s with the easy driver (owner), & i've seen it run as fast as 10.3s with the other driver, no doubt it a solid 9 second car, so the ETs are all over the place, most of the time the tires don't hold on the shifts IF its in the boost, so basically what i'm saying is, YES, its very possible that car runs 150+ & mid 11s.
