-Si variant (coupe/sedan): 2013 Sedan
-Modifications: No rear seat, spare tire or accessories. K&N Typhoon Intake is the only performance mod.
-Approximate additional or less weight: ~30-50 lbs
-Timeslip:

Launched at ~3k rpm, mines on the left. I did progressively worse after each run, first one was the best. I feel like our stock tires kinda suck, but the car I was going against was a bolt ons dc5 with better tires... notice the 60' time on both. This things a torque monster! :D

Soo how did you lose? I see that at the 1/8 mile you were running a nice trap speed. I mean 500mph. Did you pull the chute to early? Drop your transmission for a clutch swap at the halfway mark? Or just figured you would let off and give him a chance?

Tires wore out half way, had to stop in the pit and get em changed real quick. That K&N typhoon as the only performance mod is really a jet engine I guess.
