Racing Tip

[Bregorb]

I have been challege by a honda to race. I do not have any thing done to my car to race it. I know that my care take off slow. Is there any thing u gays can tell me what to do to increse the speed of the car and the take off. I have a 2001 ES I4 model.

Try to start from the loewest Gear and hit 5500 RPM and work u're way up !!! or intall a NOS what kind of Honduh ??

[Bregorb]

It is a civic

[efiLnikcuFeciN]

Honduh sux also if u want to add some power, try to use some 100 octane fuel, the 1 they use for Nascar, some 76 have em here in CA.

I Dont want to use Nos. Is their another was to gain speed quicker. I read about how to let you car know that you are a hard driver in one of the forums

Going faster will help but you will want to make your car lighter too. Take out the spare tire and the jack. And make sure you turn off your a/c and the radio. That will make the power that you do have more effective!!

race with your tank almost empty. gas =weight but yea don't run out of gas when u race too haha that would be funny

Get some turbo's, its better than NOS .

Quick tips,
get a Cold Air Intake ($250). Racing Headers ($268), New Cat Converter, pipes and muff back($250), a new Fuel Pressure Regulator ($250), Some new plugs, and wires($35-150) and possibly an S-AFC ($$$???)

If the Honda is stock, you should have no trouble.

Thats what i'm screamin right there.

And one thing, when you start off in low and gas it... do you let off the gas each time you change gears in an Automatic?

Hold the brake down a couple of seconds before takeoff well you are pushing the gas. Get the tach about to 2500 or 3000 . When it turns green let of brakes fast and slam gas all the way down. Dont hold it down to long though cause it will fry your tranny fluid and could hurt the tranny. I dont reccomend you do this and im not responsible for any damage or harm caused by this but this is how you can get an advantage.
