Good runs for you..on paper, he should have killed you. A cam only C5Z will go 121-122 pretty easily with traction and a decent driver.

Y'all both need tires.

Yeah I didn't realize how much lighter those cars are! Yeah 122 is a good bit better than 118-119 that I've been trapping. I am full weight with a light sub and amp. I'll delete back seats and stuff soon. Haven't really found something that looks good in their place though.

I would have tires but my 10-bolt is on its last stretch and makes a shitload of noise so I am sure I'd destroy it with tires. We were both running NT555's lol they don't hook for crap.

Jesus, that guy must have been a previous Civic owner! Lmao...

Ironically, some of my toughest runs back when I had my c5z were with damn 4g camarofishes...

Thanks for the video man, car seemed to move very well!

Possibly your are getting squirrley because your posi is fading in and out with the positive traction?
Nice runs too, your car runs as it should. My old 408 car had a rear seat delete, it was this same one. I got mine used though. And I was happy with it. I don't know what color your interior is.
