We've got a rolling photo shoot coming up with 15-20 turbocharged cars. THAT is gonna be the one. I'm going to smoke a couple sets of Subie tail lights this weekend in exchange for my headlight harness. The reason the bumper is f'd up on the passenger side is because there is a broken tab on that headlight. I need to get them suckers out.

i hope your smoke job adds more gloss than that finish on your headlights.

Congrats Charles!
Never drag raced or even thought of drag racing, thanks for describing the launch concept--what do you do with tire pressures? |

good call; and a nice buff will do the trick.

We didn't do anything, but a couple of psi out of each tire would certainly help. I was running 33 psi. |

Funny thing is I think I may have still pulled off a 30+ MPG tank. That is with 10 top speed runs.
If you don't love the Yaris, you're on crack. |

Ok, call me stoopid but what does missing second mean? You don't get the transmission into second gear crisply so you slow down while you're off the throttle?

drivers more than 50/50
a good driver can shave tenths at every shift. :) good luck, any more weight reduction in order? |

you try to shift into 2nd but you let out the clutch before you're in gear and you end up revving up in neutral. or you grind the piss out of it for a second (generally that slows people down too). if you've ever drag raced or if you ever do, you'll most likely experience the same thing. (unless you have an auto). |
