Thanks for the compliments.  I got really excited at the end because it took us 3 hours to finally get that race.  We even had a race earlier but the camera wasnt ready (it was a stock 04 Civic so we werent expecting it).  A lotta fun, though.  I love having an engine with top end.

I might do some more tweaking before finally putting it on youtube, but that's pretty much how I want it.

I've done some minor editing to it, added another short clip, and now you can get the full res version:

Looking good :D

For the underhood black plastic and rubber I use Meguiar's rubber and vinyl shine (the stuff in the red bottle). I just spray some on a paper towel and wipe it on. Works great and lasts for a fairly long time. After you put it on you can just wipe the black plastic and rubber parts to remove the dust from driving.

I just watched the vid but I'm wondering where the wheel spin is on launch. In mine I feathered the throttle and still got a chirp out of it;) . I have to get a vid of mine doing a full throttle launch. First time I did it I thought the car was bogging because I wasn't going forward. Turns out it was just spinning:hick: I need fatter tires......



Oh and "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave".;)

I have to leave hard to wheel spin; that wasn't a full throttle launch.  And it's amazingly easy to chirp the tires when making a turn...I did it today coming out of school and I seriously wasnt getting on it at all.  To think I still only have 2.73s...

wait i dont remember....is it a Trac-Lok? if it is they will squeal going over slightly uneven pavement ALL the time I love it. someone told me about that....hes like "man u got some sick-ass posi goin on in that" and explained that its actually locking the axle a little and the inner wheel is spinnin faster.
 
BUT obviously the best part about it is pinstriping the road TWICE not just once
