Took corsa to 1/4 mile. Fastest run i got was 15.022 over the moon with that result for being completly standard engine
14s should be handy got into. 1st was useless far to much spinning. so found out front shocks need replaced. She was lifting at front big time and tracking needs set. Hopefully getting another day on 26 october

There's a fine line with Civic's to launch well. Too much and you'll just spin. Too little and it bogs down.

stiffer rear shocks would be more usefull to resist the weight transfer

short fronts also help, less lift

infact, as for the rear, it doesn't work for everyone but solid bars instead of dampers can help. easy enough to make them, just use the bottom and top from a standard damper and use some solid bar, best stuff we found to use is the stuff you can cut out the doors
