It really looked like he was jumping out.

Also theres the bit where its all roll races which will favor the Turbo car every time.

180. But you have to remember he switched cars so it was a 360lb swing between the cars.

Thats a huge amount. Have you ever done a race like that back to back to see what it does? From what I have seen in cars trapping 110-120 a 200lb passenger is a good car length in a 80-100mph worth of race.

Agree. 9 out of 10 races ive seen where the passenger switches vehicles = about one car length flip.

Nothing against the TA, it runs strong, but....

That civic needs a diff tune if u ask me. Just doesn't move like a Turbo K should in "my opinion" maybe LightningTeg can chime in on this

I think it ran about right for 10lbs on a stock motor.

Here's an example of how much passenger weight makes a difference. My brother was 320ish at the time, and was the cameraman.

Edit: Neither of these cars are 110-120 trap cars here, but figured it was still a good example...

2012 Mustang 3.7l v6 vs Stage2 SRT4 + ls2 GTO - YouTube

That's like 2 passengers...

That 3.7 runs good though!

If its on pump it looks like it runs like it should. My friend made 398 on 9.x psi on an ebay turbo and no name sidewinder on e85. Seems about right. T/A is impressive for its weight.
