wow, are you sure they were 300lbs, did he weigh them? I'll definitely go through that trouble next time if they weigh that much, especially since I have leather seats. They're hitting that "good track" I mentioned this coming Friday, and I might go but probably not race. I want to save up for a CAI before I do more runs.

aux: Had my left foot on brake and right on gas. Let go of brake and gunned it when the light went on, no brake torque or anything. I left it in D3. I have problems with traction just gunning it with these stock michelins, so I didn't see a point in putting extra strain on my tranny doing that and then sqealing even more.

I just shift upwards, but I heard thatz not good. Still, it makes me feel like I have some control over the gears.

Nice times. There isn't a very large aftermarket variety for 5th gen v6 right?

Oh, I meant that I reduced pressure in the front tires also besides taking the spare out.

immalooser: There isn't too much, especially since the engine bay is pretty packed. AEM doesn't even make a CAI for it, but some other no name companies do.

And I left it in d3, as you can see, I probably only go to 90 or so by the end and that was around 6000rpm(~6200 is redline).

99accord: yeah, my reaction time wasn't too great, it was my first time at the track. On the last run, I got a red light for starting too soon at .4479 secs. Just slightly too soon.

the aem cai for a 98-02 v6 fits with minor modification... someone on here used to have one on their 5g v6
