you are completely wrong, in the other thread the slicks were tiny, these are definitely not as tiny

oh and paul they are 22/8/13 m&h race masters, definitely too big for his car

They're smaller than his street tires. They're not optimal but they should yeild a better et.. going slower with slicks that are a touch smaller than your street tires doesnt really follow any sort of logic.

the slicks just seemed to be too sticky, launched it off the rev limiter and it still bogged, they were just too sticky, keep in mind the car weighs like 2800 pounds and probably only makes 125-135whp probably a 20" slick would work much better

If your car weights 2800lbs going down the track and you went 89mph you're making more than 150whp.

There must have been some kind of barometric and/or magnetic phenomenon that occurred at St. Thomas that day. or maybe the honda went so fast that it went back in time for a few tenths.

I'll stop.

so i was wrong about the weight, 2510 plus 50 pounds for the b series plus 140 pounds for the driver so 2700 pounds, and the motor, STOCK B16A with a destroyed vibrant header, dented beyond belief wiht a short ram intake and a vibrant exhaust i seriously doubt it makes more then 130whp in its current condition, so whatever the explanation i don't know but i know what it ran and i know its done similar times before with similar mph's
