14.2 on slicks??? aru guys out of your mind, a bone stock integra gsr. even motortrend didnt run 15.2 with stock rubber i think the 99 gsr ran like 15.6 or 15.5. SO if i put slicks on a 15.5 sec car with a race car driver in it its goin to magically run 14.2s???!?!!?!? have you guys lost it? thats a 1.3 sec drop. that would mean the guy would have to stall off the line restart the car and then run the 1/4 to get such a bad 60 ft that slicks would cut 1.3 sec off his time. jesus

my friends gsr runs 2.2 in the 60 ft with bf goodrich drag radials, and this guy knows how to drive. His car is pretty much stock other than an intake and exaust and it runs in the 15.2 range. His raction time is .523 just to give you an idea of his skill.

another good comparision the new turbo neon in motor trend is said to run a 14.2 or so 1/4 time. This is a 215 hp 220 ftlb of trq vehicle that wieghs almost the same as an integra gsr, also fwd with some good rubber. This car runs 14.2s. We were playing with my buddies neon at the track and were running a set of slicks, the car ran 13.98
vs. previous tim of 14.3 60fts were previously 2.3 to 2.2 now 1.8 range damn good for fwd.

and this has nothing to do with my knowledge of hondas, having previously owned an ls vtec integra that ran 15.0s. this has to do with common sense experience at drag racing comps and race car tech for import drag.
