Nice runs, the old bird still getting it done, wish you knew more about it. And the honda did pretty good on the dig run surprisingly, and I also want to know what is up with the white marker light turning on and off lol

TA is probably cammed.

If there is anyone here who is/was involved with the Honda racing crowd, why is it that Honda drivers feel the need to hit the limiter and bounce off it for a while before every single shift?

It's so they can hear their fart can muffler over the car they're racing. It's like stickers, the more you have the faster you go.

Most likely 450 at the crank, not wheels

Im not involved in the honda crowds but my ex brother in law had a p.o.s. turbo honda that was slow as ****, and I believe he had some NLS box and you could adjust the rpm settings for in between shifts, possibly to spool up the turbo before the rpm drop. Or somthing like that.

I bet the driver would tell you "it wraps the gear out so quick I can't keep off it" lol
