There was no way this was last years... Thats sheps car and he just got it running last year on the new set up. Prior to last year the car was down for quite a few years and before that it sat like it did in this video. This video is probably from like 2007...

This is what his car looks like now.

Are you really this ******* stupid??? With all the traction in the world hondas 60 ft like ****..... Leave it to you ***** to not know torque is what gets the ****** moving when traction is present. This is why you **** get ur day fucked up from a dig. You are the one who has no clue.

Weight transfer is why fwd sucks from a dig.

Isnt the J32 the nsx 6 cylinder? And its turboed? Id hate to know how much money he has in that setup to run mid 10's.

Irunelevens

No, that is the C series.

AnnivSS

Ah gotcha, Im not up to par on my Honda motors.

According to you, with all the traction possible (which isn't much), Hondas 60ft like ****. So your brilliant idea is to give them more torque. Makes sense.

Me either, maybe we aren't missing much?

I think he's saying that the whole setup isn't great for digs...period.

dsmfan95

So the obvious remedy is more torque. Duh.

What im saying is this: Traction is an excuse.....heavy spring out back with limit straped front with proper tire and your little **** boxes can get plenty of traction set up properly. Most honda homos never go to the extent im talking. However if it was set up proper a j series thathooks is gona get a beter 60 than your **** bseries. Learn how to make you little **** boxes work from a dig. You guys always worry about a big gay number instead of the whole deal. Now tell be how its impossible and they are so powerfull they dont have traction lol... Then in the next sentence tell me how you have no limit straps and how your car sits so low you cant get much tire on it lmao you guys are clueless keep relying on the back half .

My little Honda doesn't even have a b-series, just a little old bone stock single cam :/

My other shitbox however does just fine from a dig.

The C series is whats in the NSX as was already said. This guy has a stock motor with a turbo bolted to it and some slicks from the looks of it:

Im sure its not as easy as throwing a high rate spring in the rear and strapping down the front. Drag racing is not some crazy new thing

NOLAG05

They didn't finish last year. They got to the semi-finals and quit. We left around 11pm and the temperature was in the 30's and they were still running. Supposed to be a 3 day event this year.

Actually it is almost that easy. I strapped my front end down and use the E-brake as a stage brake to pre-load the suspension and drivetrain. That was a big improvement that helped me pull low 1.7's on the radials with such low power levels.

This is why they suck and I bitch. Can you imagine driving a hunk of **** around on the street with the front strapped and to much spring at both ends.....what a heap o' ****. A friend is messing with a neon, he's talking about running like 500 and 300 lb springs and strapping it, it's gonna ride like ****.
Read above. Do you ride around strapped all the time?

NOLAG05

didn't finish?
