Whom are you speaking to? I'd race you in my Civic, but I'm smart enough to know that I'll lose. Not enough horsepower or skills yet, even though my RTs average in the 0.1XXs on a drag strip.

The skill at the strip is in the 60 foot times not the r/t as the clock doesn't start until you actually cross the start line. You can have a 3.00 r/t and still have the same 1/4 mile time.

If you're actually trying to race, then yes, it matters. If you're only trying to get a good 1/4 mile time, it doesn't matter.

So that's where the torque comes into play?

No, that's where your launch technique comes into play with learning the fastest way to get your car off the line. It's different for different cars. The hardest to learn is fwd 5 speeds.

When you can sonsistantly pull a 2.0 or under 60 ft time with a fwd, you got it down.

I will be working on that.
